The One Lord is eternal and unchanging, forever True.
ਪੂਰੇ ਗੁਰ ਤੇ ਸੋਝੀ ਹੋਈ ॥

Through the Perfect Guru, this understanding is obtained.
ਹਰਿ ਰਸਿ ਭੀਨੇ ਸਦਾ ਧਿਆਇਨਿ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਸੀਲੁ ਸੰਨਾਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੧॥
har ras bheenay sadaa Dhi-aa-in gurmat seel sannaahaa hay. ||1||
Those who are drenched with the sublime essence of the Lord, meditate forever on Him; following the Guru's Teachings, they obtain the armor of humility. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is forever True. It never changes and never fades.
Through the perfect Guru this becomes clear, and those soaked in the One's sweetness follow the Guru and wear humility like armor that keeps them safe.
Humility is armor: the gentlest thing, and the strongest protection.
The One is changeless and forever True. Humility, nimrata, becomes an armor, the gentlest strength, protecting the heart from within.
