Salok:

ਸਾਧਸੰਗਤਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਭ੍ਰਮਿ ਮੁਈ ਕਰਤੀ ਕਰਮ ਅਨੇਕ ॥

saadhasangat bin bhram muee karatee karam anek |

Without the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, one dies wandering around in confusion, performing all sorts of rituals.

ਕੋਮਲ ਬੰਧਨ ਬਾਧੀਆ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਰਮਹਿ ਲੇਖ ॥੧॥

komal bandhan baadheea naanak karameh lekh |1|

O Nanak, all are bound by the attractive bonds of Maya, and the karmic record of past actions. ||1||

ਜੋ ਭਾਣੇ ਸੇ ਮੇਲਿਆ ਵਿਛੋੜੇ ਭੀ ਆਪਿ ॥

jo bhaane se meliaa vichhorre bhee aap |

Those who are pleasing to God are united with Him; He separates others from Himself.

ਨਾਨਕ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਸਰਣਾਗਤੀ ਜਾ ਕਾ ਵਡ ਪਰਤਾਪੁ ॥੨॥

naanak prabh saranaagatee jaa kaa vadd parataap |2|

Nanak has entered the Sanctuary of God; His greatness is glorious! ||2||
