Verse:
Deh Shiva bar mohe ihai
देह शिवा बर मोहे ईहे, शुभ कर्मन ते कभुं न टरूं
न डरौं अरि सौं जब जाय लड़ौं, निश्चय कर अपनी जीत करौं,
अरु सिख हों आपने ही मन कौ इह लालच हउ गुन तउ उचरों,
जब आव की अउध निदान बनै अति ही रन मै तब जूझ मरों ॥२३१॥
~ गुरु गोबिंद सिंह

English Translation
O Akaal, give me this boon
May I never ever shirk from doing good deeds
That I shall not fear when I go into combat. And with determination, I will be victorious.
That I may teach myself this greed alone, to speak only of Thy (almighty lord Waheguru) praises.
And when the last days of my life come, I may die in the might of the battlefield.

~ Guru Gobind Singh.
