There’s a lovely rhythm to them that reminds me of days I would follow my father to the Buddhist temple when it was his turn to bring food for the monks, and I would sort of just tune in to the beautiful hypnotic chanting, and tune out the rest of the world.

Those prayers are almost assuredly written/spoken in archaic Punjabi (The Japji Sahib definitely is).

“Gurbani” is a term used to refer to writing that comes from the Gurus themselves.
