Serving the Guru, the Name is obtained, and one remains absorbed in the True Lord.

From the Guru, I have obtained the Lord; I have made Him my Guru. || 2 || The Sovereign Lord is the Giver of virtue. I am worthless and without virtue.

The Boat of the True Guru is the Name of the Lord. How can we climb on board? One who walks in harmony with the True Guru's Will comes to sit in this Boat. Blessed, blessed are those very fortunate ones, O Nanak, who are united with the Lord through the True Guru.

When the True Guru is pleased and satisfied, O Nanak, the True Name is obtained.

That bride, who is absorbed into the True Guru, shall never become a widow. Her Husband Lord is Beautiful; His Body is forever fresh and new.

The true ones are absorbed into the True Lord.
