Gur Bin Ghor Andhaar
Without the Guru, there is utter darkness; without the Guru, understanding does not come.
gur bin surath n sidhh guroo bin mukath n paavai
Without the Guru, there is no intuitive awareness or success; without the Guru, there is no liberation.
gur kar sach beechaar guroo kar rae man maerae
So make Him your Guru, and contemplate the Truth; make Him your Guru, O my mind.
gur kar sabadh sapu(n)n aghan kattehi sabh thaerae
Make Him your Guru, who is embellished and exalted in the Word of the Shabad; all your sins shall be washed away.
gur nayan bayan gur gur karahu guroo sath kav naly kehi
So speaks NALL the poet: with your eyes, make Him your Guru; with the words you speak, make Him your Guru, your True Guru.
jin guroo n dhaekhiao nahu keeao thae akayathh sa(n)saar mehi
Those who have not seen the Guru, who have not made Him their Guru, are useless in this world.
