I heard this Shabad this morning and for some reason reminded me of the comments on this thread.
ga-orhee mehlaa 5.
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:
raakh pitaa parabh mayray.
Save me, O My Father God.

I am worthless and without virtue; all virtues are Yours. ||1||Pause||
panch bikhaadee ayk gareebaa raakho raakhanhaaray.
The five vicious thieves are assaulting my poor being; save me, O Savior Lord!

Trying all sorts of things, I have grown weary, but still, they will not leave me alone.

But I have heard that they can be rooted out, in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; and so I seek their Shelter. ||2||

In their Mercy, the Saints have met me, and from them, I have obtained satisfaction.

The Saints have given me the Mantra of the Fearless Lord, and now I practice the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||3||

I have now conquered those terrible evil-doers, and my speech is now sweet and sublime.
