Translation:
This is righteous living in the realm of Dharma.
And now we speak of the realm of spiritual wisdom.
So many winds, waters and fires; so many Krishnas and Shivas.
So many Brahmas, fashioning forms of great beauty,
Adorned and dressed in so many colors.
So many worlds and lands for working out karma.
So many lessons to be learned!
So many Indras, so many moons and suns, so many planets and countries.
So many Siddhas, so many Buddhas and Yogic Masters.
So many goddesses of various kinds.
So many demi-gods, so many demons and silent sages.
So many oceans of jewels.
So many ways of life, so many languages.
So many dynasties of rulers.
So many intuitives, so many selfless servants.
O Nanak, there is no end, no limit.
