Verse 1

He is not established, nor is He created. The pure one existeth by Himself. They who worshipped Him have obtained honour. Nanak, sing His praises who is the Treasury of excellences. Sing and hear and put His love into your hearts. Thus shall your sorrows be removed, and you shall be absorbed in Him who is the abode of happiness. Under the Guru's instruction God's word is heard; under the Guru's instruction its knowledge is acquired; under the Guru's instruction man learns that God is everywhere contained. The Guru is Shiv; the Guru is Vishnu and Brahma; the Guru is Parbati, Lakhshmi, and Saraswati. If I knew Him, should I not describe Him? He cannot be described by words. My Guru hath explained one thing to me -- That there is but one Bestower on all living beings; may I not forget Him!
