Salok, Third Mehla:
The love of Maya is enticing; without teeth,
it has eaten up the world.
The self-willed manmukhs are eaten away,
while the Gurmukhs are saved;
they focus their consciousness on the True Name.
Without the Name,
the world wanders around insane;
the Gurmukhs come to see this.
Involved in worldly affairs, he wastes his life in vain;
the peace-giving Lord does not come to abide in his mind.
O Nanak, they alone obtain the Name,
who have such pre-ordained destiny. 1
