ਗੁਨੁ ਅਵਗੁਨੁ ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਕਛੁ ਨ ਬੀਚਾਰਿਓ ਕਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਅਪੁਨਾ ਕਰਿ ਲਇਆ ॥
gun avgun parabh kachh na beechaari-o kar kirpaa apunaa kar la-i-aa.
God has not considered my merits and demerits; in His Mercy, He has made me His own.
ਅਤੁਲ ਬਡਾਈ ਅਚੁਤ ਅਬਿਨਾਸੀ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਉਚਰੈ ਹਰਿ ਕੀ ਜਇਆ ॥੨॥੮॥੧੨੪॥
atul badaa-ee achut abhinaasee naanak uchrai har kee ja-i-aa. ||2||8||124||
Unweighable is the greatness of the immovable and imperishable Lord; Nanak proclaims the victory of the Lord. ||2||8||124||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One did not stop to weigh my good points against my bad; out of pure kindness, He made me His own.
The greatness of the One who never fades is beyond all measuring -- Nanak says it out loud: victory to the One!
You do not have to pass a test to be loved and chosen.
gun avgun kachh na beechaari-o -- merits and demerits not tallied; grace received, not earned. atul, achut, abhinaasee -- unweighable, unmoving, unfading. jai -- the glad shout of victory. Closes at ||124||.
