One who believes in the Name of the Infinite Lord, attains the Court of the Lord. I humbly bow to the Creator Lord; I am a minstrel singing His Praises.
I am a sacrifice, my soul is a sacrifice, to that True Court of the Beloved Guru.
Bound and gagged at Death's Door, One is cruelly beaten, and punished in the Court of the Lord
By true actions, the True Lord is met, and the Guru's Teachings are found. Then, they are not subject to birth and death; they do not come and go in reincarnation. O Nanak, they are respected at the Lord's Gate; they are robed in honor in the Court of the Lord.
The Great Giver has given the intoxicating drug of falsehood. The people are intoxicated; they have forgotten death, and they have fun for a few days. Those who do not use intoxicants are true; they dwell in the Court of the Lord.
The genuine are assayed, and accepted in the Court of the All-knowing Lord.
The genuine are placed in His Treasury, while the counterfeit are thrown away. The counterfeit are thrown out of the True Court - unto whom should they complain? They should worship and follow the True Guru - this is the lifestyle of excellence.
The Lord alone is the One Creator; there is only the One Court of the Lord.
