I have sold my head to the Guru.

From the Guru, I have obtained the Lord; I have made Him my Guru. || 2 || The Sovereign Lord is the Giver of virtue. I am worthless and without virtue.

There is no other as Great as the Guru. I have come and collapsed in the Guru's Sanctuary. In His Kindness, He has united me with God.

My True Guru is absolutely All-powerful.

Some try to find the Guru by shaving their heads at the Ganges, but I have made the Guru my Ganges.

The Guru is the Ladder, the Guru is the Boat, and the Guru is the Raft to take me to the Lord's Name. The Guru is the Boat to carry me across the world-ocean; the Guru is the Sacred Shrine of Pilgrimage, the Guru is the Holy River. If it pleases Him, I bathe in the Pool of Truth, and become radiant and pure.
