Chant that the guru is everything!
O Guru, O Guru!
The Guru is mother and father,
The Guru is my master and refuge,
Om, salutations to the Guru!
No matter what, in every way,
Our life is a carpet of many colours!

If our wishes are to be fulfilled,
If our wishes are to be fulfilled,
We must carry out grand schemes!
A pleasure-seeker must pose as a monk,
A renouncer must act like an ailing man!
A pleasure-seeker must pose as a monk,
A renouncer must act like an ailing man!
A pleasure-seeker must pose as a monk,
A renouncer must act like an ailing man!

We must put on many disguises,
We must wrap ourselves in saffron robes!
We must seem still as stone, unreal as a dream,
We must feign prayer like a watchful crane!
We must seem still as stone, unreal as a dream,
We must feign prayer like a watchful crane!
Guru Maharaj, Guru Maharaj!

And bewitch everyone with clever tricks!

When I sought the saving mantra, I received it,
When I sought the saving mantra, I received it,
I have become truly blessed, oh brother!
Even before the fierce messengers of Death,
Even before the fierce messengers of Death,
Even before the fierce messengers of Death,
I kept my heart calm and gentle!
When I sought the saving mantra, I received it!
Chorus: I asked and received it! I asked and received it!
I asked and received it! Chorus: I asked and received it… (3)
