1411 : 33
One who sees the One and Only Lord with his eyes - his hands shall not get muddy and dirty.

1411 : 34
O Nanak, the Gurmukhs are saved; the Guru has surrounded the ocean with the embankment of Truth. ||8||

1411 : 35
If you wish to put out the fire, then look for water; without the Guru, the ocean of water is not found.

1411 : 36
You shall continue to wander lost in reincarnation through birth and death, even if you do thousands of other deeds.

1411 : 37
But you shall not be taxed by the Messenger of Death, if you walk in harmony with the Will of the True Guru.

1411 : 38
O Nanak, the immaculate, immortal status is obtained, and the Guru will unite you in the Lord's Union. ||9||

1411 : 39
The crow rubs and washes itself in the mud puddle.

1411 : 40
Its mind and body are polluted with its own mistakes and demerits, and its beak is filled with dirt.

1411 : 41
The swan in the pool associated with the crow, not knowing that it was evil.

1411 : 42
Such is the love of the faithless cynic; understand this, O spiritually wise ones, through love and devotion.

1411 : 43
So proclaim the victory of the Society of the Saints, and act as Gurmukh.

1411 : 44
Immaculate and pure is that cleansing bath, O Nanak, at the sacred shrine of the Guru's river. ||10||

1411 : 45
What should I account as the rewards of this human life, if one does not feel love and devotion to the Lord?

1411 : 46
Wearing clothes and eating food is useless, if the mind is filled with the love of duality.

1411 : 47
Seeing and hearing is false, if one speaks lies.

1411 : 48
O Nanak, praise the Naam, the Name of the Lord; everything else is coming and going in egotism. ||11||

1411 : 49
The Saints are few and far between; everything else in the world is just a pompous show. ||12||

1411 : 50
O Nanak, one who is struck by the Lord dies instantaneously; the power to live is lost.

1411 : 51
If someone dies by such a stroke, then he is accepted.

1411 : 52
He alone is struck, who is struck by the Lord; after such a stroke, he is approved.

1411 : 53
The arrow of love, shot by the All-knowing Lord, cannot be pulled out. ||13||

1411 : 54
Who can wash the unbaked clay pot?

1411 : 55
Joining the five elements together, the Lord made a false cover.

1411 : 56
When it pleases Him, He makes it right.

1411 : 57
The supreme light shines forth, and the celestial song vibrates and resounds. ||14||

1411 : 58
Those who are totally blind in their minds, do not have the integrity to keep their word.

1411 : 59
With their blind minds, and their upside-down heart-lotus, they look totally ugly.

1411 : 60
Some know how to speak and understand what they are told. Those people are wise and good-looking.

1411 : 61
Some do not know the Sound-current of the Naad, spiritual wisdom or the joy of song. They do not even understand good and bad.

1411 : 62
Some have no idea of perfection, wisdom or understanding; they know nothing about the mystery of the Word.

1411 : 63
O Nanak, those people are really donkeys; they have no virtue or merit, but still, they are very proud. ||15||

1411 : 64
He alone is a Brahmin, who knows God.

1411 : 65
He chants and meditates, and practices austerity and good deeds.

1411 : 66
He keeps to the Dharma, with faith, humility and contentment.

1411 : 67
Breaking his bonds, he is liberated.

1411 : 68
Such a Brahmin is worthy of being worshipped. ||16||

1411 : 69
He alone is a Kh'shaatriyaa, who is a hero in good deeds.

1411 : 70
He uses his body to give in charity;

1411 : 71
he understands his farm, and plants the seeds of generosity.

1411 : 72
Such a Kh'shaatriyaa is accepted in the Court of the Lord.

1411 : 73
Whoever practices greed, possessiveness and falsehood,

1411 : 74
shall receive the fruits of his own labors. ||17||

1411 : 75
Do not heat your body like a furnace, or burn your bones like firewood.

1411 : 76
What have your head and feet done wrong? See your Husband Lord within yourself. ||18||
