O Nanak, the True Guru is always kind and compassionate, unto those whom the Lord Himself has blessed with His Mercy.
Unto whom can we turn and cry? By one's own actions, nothing can be done; destiny was pre-determined from the very beginning.
O God, that one, unto whom You have given shelter, is not touched by the hot winds.
All are Yours, and You belong to all. You are the wealth of all. Everyone begs from You, and all offer prayers to You each day. Those, unto whom You give, receive everything.
That person, unto whom Your actions seem sweet, comes to see the Supreme Lord God in each and every heart.
Without the One Lord, there is no other at all. Unto whom should they complain? Some are destitute, and wander around endlessly, while others have storehouses of wealth.
How can I protect my hearth and home, O my mind? They are beating and plundering me over and over again; unto whom can I complain?
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.
