Salok, Third Mehl:

One person brings a full bottle, and another fills his cup.

Drinking the wine, his intelligence departs, and madness enters his mind;

he cannot distinguish between his own and others, and he is struck down by his Lord and Master.

Drinking it, he forgets his Lord and Master, and he is punished in the Court of the Lord.

Do not drink the false wine at all, if it is in your power.

O Nanak, the True Guru comes and meets the mortal; by His Grace, one obtains the True Wine.

He shall dwell forever in the Love of the Lord Master, and obtain a seat in the Mansion of His Presence. ||1||

Third Mehl:

When this world comes to understand, it remains dead while yet alive.

When the Lord puts him to sleep, he remains asleep; when He wakes him up, he regains consciousness.

O Nanak, when the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, He causes him to meet the True Guru.

By Guru's Grace, remain dead while yet alive, and you shall not have to die again. ||2||

Pauree:

By His doing, everything happens; what does He care for anyone else?

O Dear Lord, everyone eats whatever You give - all are subservient to You.

One who praises You obtains everything; You bestow Your Mercy upon him, O Immaculate Lord.

He alone is a true banker and trader, who loads the merchandise of the wealth of the Your Name, O Lord.

O Saints, let everyone praise the Lord, who has destroyed the pile of the love of duality. ||16||
