It is included in [[Nitnem]], the daily morning prayers of Sikhs, and recited after completing [[Jaap Sahib]].
 
It starts with ''Sravag Sudh Samuh Sidhan Ke'' and goes up to ''Koor Kriya Urjheo Sab Hi Jag''. Among many famous quotes from Tav-Prasad Savaiye, ''"Jin Prem Kiyo Tin Hi Prabhu Paayo"'' is widely quoted by different scholars of different religions.

== Significance ==
Tav-Prasad Savaiye is very important part of the [[Nitnem]]. Among other things [[Nitnem]] works as a shield for the Khalsa <sub>(Khalsa is a perfect human being, which is the vision of Guru Gobind Singh  by the orders of Akal Purkh. Such a human is perfectly capable of defending himself and others from the attacks of enemy(both spiritual and temporal)).</sub>
 
Specifically Savaiye act as a shield against the attacks of Pride, Ignorance, Hatred, Hypocrisy and Delusions.
