The wealth of the Lord's Name

Guru Amar Das ji

The wealth of the Lord's Name is immaculate,

and absolutely infinite.
The Word of the Guru's Shabad

is over-flowing with treasure.
Know that, except for the wealth of the Name,

all other wealth is poison.
The egotistical people are burning in their attachment to Maya. 1
How rare is that Gurmukh

who tastes the sublime essence of the Lord.
He is always in bliss,

day and night;

through perfect good destiny,

he obtains the Name. Pause
