This is what mentioned in Sikh's Holy book Shri Guru Granth Sahib ji.

"Ek Onkar Satnam Karta Purush Nirbhau Virvair Akal Murat,
Ajuni Saibhang Gurprasad(i)"

The English rendering would approximate to:

There is One and only One God who is transcendent as well
as immanent. True and Eternal Name. Creator and Person.
Without Fear and without Enmity. Timeless Form, Unborn,
Self-existent. Realized by Divine Grace.
