Shabad Interpretation in English:

O my mind, meditate on the Almighty, the Lord of the World. The Lord is like Jewels and the Diamonds. O Lord, please, please, be merciful to me. Your Glorious Virtues are inaccessible and unfathomable; How can my one poor tongue describe them? O my Beloved Lord, O my Beloved Lord. Your description is unfathomable; You only know yourself; By meditating on the Lord, I have become delighted and enraptured. My Lord is my very dear friend; He is my Master and a companion. My mind, body and tongue are attuned to the Lord; The Almighty Waheguru is my Wealth and Property. She alone obtains her Husband Lord, who is so pre-destined. Through the Guru’s Teachings, she sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord Waheguru. I am a sacrifice, a sacrifice to the Lord. Servant Nanak, meditating on the Lord, has become delighted and enraptured.

Shabad Viyakheya in Punjabi:

Shabad Interpretation in Hindi:

हे मेरे मन, इस सृष्टि के पालनहार प्रभु का सिमरन कर. परमात्मा का सिमरन तो रतन जवाहर जैसा आभूषण है. गुरु की शरण मे और साध-जानो की सांगत द्वारा इस आभूषण को बना. प्रभु तो हर समय दयावान है. हे मेरे सुंदर लाल प्रभु, तेरे गुणों का कोई अंत नहीं, मेरी समझ के बहार है. मेरी एक जीह्वा तेरी बेअंत अवस्था का कैसे वर्णन कर सकती है. हे प्रभु जी, तेरा वर्णन करना असंभव है. तूं आप ही अपने बारे जनता है. मैं तो हरि-जप कर के ही आनन्दित और भावविभोर हो गया हूँ. हे भाई, प्रभु जी हमारे प्रिय मित्र हैं. वोह हमारे स्वामी भी हैं और साथी भी. जिस पर प्रभु की किरपा होती है वोह सुहागन गुरु शिक्षा द्वारा प्रभु गुण गायन करती है और आनंदित होतीं है. दास नानक हरि-जप कर कर के आनन्दित और भावविभोर हो जाता है.
