Guru Ram Das, Rāg Gujari

O servants of God and the true Guru, the true Being, offer this supplication unto Him. We insects and worms seek thy protection, O true Guru; mercifully enlighten us with the Name; My friend and divine Guru, enlighten me with God's name. Under the Guru's instruction, the Name is the helper of my soul; singing God's praises is my occupation. Exceedingly fortunate are the men of God who have faith in Him and thirst for Him: On obtaining the name of God, they are satisfied; when men meet the company of the saints, God's attributes are known. They who obtain not the relish of God's name are unfortunate, and shall go to the god of death. Curses on the lives, curses on the hopes of living, of those who enter not the true Guru's protection and society! The saints who have obtained the society of the true Guru are those on whose foreheads it was so written from the beginning. Blest is that true society, Nanak, by meeting which the relish of God is obtained, and the Name manifested.

Guru Arjan, Rāg Gujari

O my soul, why proposest thou exertion when God Himself is engaged in effort for thee? He even putteth their food before the insects which He created in rocks and stones. O my God, they who meet the society of the saints are saved. Through the favour of the Guru they obtain the highest rank; though they be as dry wood, they are made green. No one can rely on mother, father, friends, children, or wives. God provideth every one with his daily food; why, O man, art thou afraid? The kulang flieth away hundreds of miles, leaving her young behind her. Who feedeth them? Who giveth them morsels to peck at? Have you not considered this? God holdeth in the palm of His hand all treasures and the eighteen supernatural powers. Nanak is ever a sacrifice unto Thee; O God, Thou hast no end or bounds.

So Purakh · Guru Ram Das, Rāg Asa

That Being is pure, God is the pure Being, God is altogether inaccessible and illimitable. All meditate on Thee; all meditate on Thee; O God, Thou art the true Creator. All creatures are Thine; Thou providest for them all. O saints, meditate on God who causeth all misery to be forgotten. God Himself is the Lord, God Himself is the worshipper; Nanak, what a helpless creature is man! Thou, O God, the one Supreme Being, art fully contained in every heart and pervadest everything. Some men are givers, some beggars; all are Thy wondrous sport. Thou Thyself art the Giver; Thou art the Enjoyer; I know none beside Thee. Thou art the totally infinite Supreme Being; what attributes of Thine shall I recount? The slave Nanak is a sacrifice unto those who serve Thee, unto those who serve Thee. They who meditate on Thee, who meditate on Thee, O God, abide in happiness in this age. They who meditate on God are emancipated, are emancipated, my friend; for them Death's noose is broken. All fear hath departed from those who have meditated on the fearless, the fearless God. They who have worshipped, who have worshipped my God, are absorbed in Him. Blest, blest are they who have meditated on God; the slave Nanak will become a sacrifice unto them. O Infinite One, Thine infinite storehouses are filled with Thy worship, Thy worship. O Infinite One, many are Thy saints, many are Thy saints who praise Thee. They offer various, various worship to Thee, O God; they practise austerities and repeat Thy name, O endless One. Various, various saints of Thine read many Simritis and Shastars, perform their daily duties and the six acts prescribed for Brahmans; But only they are saints, good saints, saith Nanak, who please God, the Omnipotent. Thou art the primal Being, the illimitable Creator; there is none so great as Thou. Thou art the same in every age; Thou art ever and ever the same; Thou art the eternal Creator. What pleaseth Thee prevaileth; what Thou doest cometh to pass. Thou Thyself didst fashion the whole creation, yet, being created, it shall disappear. Nanak singeth the praises of the Creator who knoweth all things.
