15. ||1||  
GOND: Blessed is the Lord of the World. Blessed is the Divine Guru. Blessed is that grain, by which the heart-lotus of the hungry blossoms forth. Blessed are those Saints, who know this. Meeting with them, one meets the Lord, the Sustainer of the World. ||1||
15. ||1||Pause||  
This grain comes from the Primal Lord God. One chants the Naam, the Name of the Lord, only when he tastes this grain. ||1||Pause||
15. ||2||  
Meditate on the Naam, and meditate on this grain. Mixed with water, its taste becomes sublime. One who abstains from this grain, loses his honor in the three worlds. ||2||
15. ||3||  
One who discards this grain, is practicing hypocrisy. She is neither a happy soul-bride, nor a widow. Those who claim in this world that they live on milk alone, secretly eat whole loads of food. ||3||
15. ||4||8||11||  
Without this grain, time does not pass in peace. Forsaking this grain, one does not meet the Lord of the World. Says Kabeer, this I know: blessed is that grain, which brings faith in the Lord and Master to the mind. ||4||8||11||
15. ||1||  
Raag Gond, The Word Of Naam Dayv Jee, First House: One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru: The ritual sacrifice of horses, giving one's weight in gold to charities, and ceremonial cleansing baths -||1||
15. ||1||Pause||  
These are not equal to singing the Praises of the Lord's Name. Meditate on your Lord, you lazy man! ||1||Pause||
15. ||2||  
Offering sweet rice at Gaya, living on the river banks at Benares, reciting the four Vedas by heart;||2||
15. ||3||  
Completing all religious rituals, restraining sexual passion by the spiritual wisdom given by the Guru, and performing the six rituals;||3||
15. ||4||1||  
Expounding on Shiva and Shakti - O man, renounce and abandon all these things. Meditate, meditate in remembrance on the Lord of the Universe. Meditate, O Naam Dayv, and cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||4||1||
15. ||1||  
GOND: The deer is lured by the sound of the hunter's bell; it loses its life, but it cannot stop thinking about it. ||1||
15. ||1||Pause||  
In the same way, I look upon my Lord. I will not abandon my Lord, and turn my thoughts to another. ||1||Pause||
15. ||2||  
As the fisherman looks upon the fish, and the goldsmith looks upon the gold he fashions;||2||
15. ||3||  
As the man driven by sex looks upon another man's wife, and the gambler looks upon the throwing of the dice -||3||
15. ||4||2||  
In the same way, wherever Naam Dayv looks, he sees the Lord. Naam Dayv meditates continuously on the Feet of the Lord. ||4||2||
15. ||1||Pause||  
GOND: Carry me across, O Lord, carry me across. I am ignorant, and I do not know how to swim. O my Beloved Father, please give me Your arm. ||1||Pause||
15. ||1||  
I have been transformed from a mortal being into an angel, in an instant; the True Guru has taught me this. Born of human flesh, I have conquered the heavens; such is the medicine I was given. ||1||
15. ||2||3||  
Please place me where You placed Dhroo and Naarad, O my Master. With the Support of Your Name, so many have been saved; this is Naam Dayv's understanding. ||2||3||
