Shabad: Ik Ardaas Bhaat Keerat Kee Gur Raamdaas Raakho Sarnaa-ee
ham avagun bharae eaek gun naahee anmrith shaadd bikhai bikh khaaee maayaa moh bharam pai bhoolae suth dhaaraa sio preeth lagaaee eik outham panth suniou gur sangath thih milanth jam thraas mittaaee | eik aradhaas bhaatt keerath kee gur raamadhaas raakhahu saranaaee
I am overflowing with sins and demerits; I have no merits or virtues at all. I abandoned the Ambrosial Nectar, and I drank poison instead. I am attached to Maya, and deluded by doubt; I have fallen in love with my children and spouse. I have heard that the most exalted Path of all is the Sangat, the Guru’s Congregation. Joining it, the fear of death is taken away. Keerat the poet offers this one prayer: O Guru Raam Daas, save me! Take me into Your Sanctuary!
