ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਦੁ ਬੇਦੁ ਹੈ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਗੁਰ ਪਰਚੈ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਵੈਗੋ ॥
gurmukh naad bayd hai gurmukh gur parchai naam Dhi-aavaigo.
The Guru's Word is the Sound-current of the Naad, The Guru's Word is the wisdom of the Vedas; coming in contact with the Guru, meditate on the Naam.
ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਰੂਪੁ ਹਰਿ ਰੂਪੋ ਹੋਵੈ ਹਰਿ ਜਨ ਕਉ ਪੂਜ ਕਰਾਵੈਗੋ ॥੬॥
har har roop har roopo hovai har jan ka-o pooj karaavaigo. ||6||
In the Image of the Lord, Har, Har, one becomes the Embodiment of the Lord. The Lord makes His humble servant worthy of worship. ||6||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
For the Gurmukh, the Guru's Word is the sacred sound, and the holy wisdom of the Vedas. Coming to know the Guru, remember the Naam.
Remembering the One, a person comes to look like the One, the very image of the One. The One makes such a humble person honored and looked up to by all.
Loving the One, you begin to look like the One.
Remember the One, and you come to look like the One you remember.
Naad: sacred sound, the inner music yogis listened for. Bayd: the Vedas, the old holy books of India. For the Gurmukh, both are found in the Guru's Word. Har roop: the One's own form; love makes you like what you love. Pooj: worship, deep honor.
