Following the Guru's teaching, I remember the True One in my mind.
Following the Guru's teaching, I am dyed in the One's love.
Following the Guru's teaching, all my bonds break, and doubt and clinging burn away.
Following the Guru's teaching, all bonds break and doubt and clinging burn away.
Following the gur updays, the Guru's teaching, the mind rests on the True One and is dyed in raam rang, the color of love. All bonds break; doubt and moh, the clinging attachment, are burned away — released, not condemned. Freedom is the note, not shame.
