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

har naam dhhan niramal ath apaaraa
gur kai sabadh bharae bha(n)ddaaraa
naam dhhan bin hor sabh bikh jaan
maaeiaa mohi jalai abhimaan 1
guramukh har ras chaakhai koe
this sadhaa ana(n)dh hovai dhin raathee

poorai bhaag paraapath hoe rehaao
