|
| ਭੀ ਤੇਰੀ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਨਾ ਪਵੈ ਹਉ ਕੇਵਡੁ ਆਖਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੧॥ |
| bhee thaeree keemath naa pavai ho kaevadd aakhaa naao ||1|| |
| -even so, I could not estimate Your Value. How can I describe the Greatness of Your Name? ||1|| |
|
| ਸਾਚਾ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰੁ ਨਿਜ ਥਾਇ ॥ |
| saachaa nirankaar nij thhaae || |
| The True Lord, the Formless One, is Himself in His Own Place. |

|
| ਅਗੀ ਸੇਤੀ ਜਾਲੀਆ ਭਸਮ ਸੇਤੀ ਰਲਿ ਜਾਉ ॥ |
| agee saethee jaaleeaa bhasam saethee ral jaao || |
| burnt by fire and mixed with ashes |
