| Bhai Nand Lal Ji, poet laureate of Guru Gobind Singh Ji's royal court, writes the following about what Khalsa really is in "Tankah Nama" Khalsa so-i jo nindaa ti-aagay Khalsa so-i laray jo agay Khalsa so-i jo panchaa ka maaray Khalsa so-i karna ko saraay Khalsa is the one who does not slander others Khalsa is the one who fights in the front line Khalsa is the one who conquors the 5 passions Khalsa is the one who fulfills all duties .......... Khalsa so-i maan jo ti-aagay Khalsa so-i jo par istaree-aa ti-aagay Khalsa so-i par drisht ko ti-aagay Khalsa so-i naam rat laagay Khalsa is the one who renounces self-pride Khalsa is the one who remains faithful within marriage Khalsa is the one who abandons sexual desire for others than the spouse Khalsa is the one who is blessed with God's Name ........... Khalsa so-i guru hit laavay Khalsa so-i saar mukh khaavay Khalsa so-i nirdhaan ko paalay Khalsa so-i dusht kao gaalai Khalsa is the one who loves Waheguru Khalsa is the one who fights bravely in battle Khalsa is the one who helps the needy Khalsa is the one who overpowers the enemy .......... Khalsa so-i naam jap kaaray Khalsa so-i malaych paar charay Khalsa so-i naam si-o joray Khalsa so-i bandan ko toray Khalsa is the one who chants God's Name Khalsa is the one who rises above the evil ones Khalsa is the one who is in tune with God's Name Khalsa is the one who breaks false rituals ........... Khalsa so-i jo charai tarang Khalsa so-i jo karay nit jang Khalsa so-i shaastar ko dhaaray Khalsa so-i dushat kao maaray. Khalsa is the one who becomes a crusader Khalsa is the one who fights daily (against the internal & external enemies) Khalsa is the one who is always ready with weapons Khalsa is the one who destroys evil.
