"PRITHAM BHAGAUTI SIMAR KE GURU NANAK LAIN DHIAE First of all after thinking of the Great Eternal Power I put my mind to Guru Nanak. 'Pritham' means first of all, 'simar' is reciting repeatedly and 'dhiae' is to meditate (think deeply). This line means that 'first of all after thinking of the Great Eternal Power I put my mind to Guru Nanak.' Guru Nanak was the first Guru whose followers were called 'Sikhs'. Sikh means a pupil, a learner. Whenever anybody went to Guru Nanak and listened and adhered to his teachings, other people called him 'Guru ka Sikh' (Sikh of the Guru)."
