English Translation :

DHANAASAREE, FOURTH MEHL:

I am blind, totally blind, entangled in corruption and poison.

How can I walk on the Guru’s Path?

If the True Guru, the Giver of peace, shows His kindness,

He attaches us to the hem of His robe. || 1 ||

O Sikhs of the Guru, O friends, walk on the Guru’s Path.

Whatever the Guru says, accept that as good; the sermon of the Lord,

Har, Har, is unique and wonderful. || 1 || Pause ||

O Saints of the Lord, O Siblings of Destiny, listen: serve the Guru,

quickly now! Let your service to the True Guru be your supplies on the Lord’s Path; pack them up, and don’t think of today or tomorrow. || 2 ||

O Saints of the Lord, chant the chant of the Lord’s Name;

the Lord’s Saints walk with the Lord.

Those who meditate on the Lord, become the Lord;

the playful, wondrous Lord meets them. || 3 ||

To chant the chant of the Lord’s Name, Har, Har, is the longing I long for;

have Mercy upon me, O Lord of the world-forest.

O Lord, unite servant Nanak with the Saadh Sangat,

the Company of the Holy; make me the dust of the feet of the Holy. || 4 || 4 ||

2nd maghar samvat 537 Nanakshahi, November 15, 2005, Tuesday 05:30 AM. IST

English Translation :

SHALOK, FOURTH MEHL:

He has spiritual ignorance within, and his intellect is dull and dim;

he does not place his faith in the True Guru.

He has deceit within himself, and so he sees deception in all others;

through his deceptions, he is totally ruined.

The True Guru’s Will does not enter into his consciousness,

and so he wanders around, pursuing his own interests.

If He grants His Grace,

then Nanak is absorbed into the Word of the Shabad. || 1 ||

FOURTH MEHL:

The self-willed manmukhs are engrossed in emotional attachment to Maya;

in the love of duality, their minds are unsteady.

Night and day, they are burning;

day and night, they are totally ruined by their egotism.

Within them, is the total pitch darkness of greed,

and no one even approaches them.

They themselves are miserable, and they never find peace;

they are born, only to die, and die again.

O Nanak, the True Lord God forgives those,

who focus their consciousness on the Guru’s feet. || 2 ||

PAUREE: That Saint, that devotee, is acceptable, who is loved by God.

Those beings are wise, who meditate on the Lord.

They eat the food, the treasure of the Ambrosial Naam,

the Name of the Lord.

They apply the dust of the feet of the Saints to their foreheads.

O Nanak, they are purified, bathing in the sacred shrine of the Lord. || 26 ||

English Translation :

DHANAASAREE, FIFTH MEHL:

Wandering and roaming around,

I met the Holy Perfect Guru, who has taught me.

All other devices did not work,

so I meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. || 1 ||

For this reason, I sought the Protection and Support of my Lord,

the Cherisher of the Universe.

I sought the Sanctuary of the Perfect Transcendent Lord,

and all my entanglements were dissolved. || Pause ||

Paradise, the earth, the nether regions of the underworld,

and the globe of the world — all are engrossed in Maya.

To save your soul, and liberate all your ancestors,

meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. || 2 ||

O Nanak, singing the Naam, the Name of the Immaculate Lord,

all treasures are obtained.

Only that rare person, whom the Lord and Master blesses with His Grace,

comes to know this. || 3 || 3 || 21 ||

English Translation :

SOOHEE, FIRST MEHL:

That vessel alone is pure, which is pleasing to Him.

The filthiest vessel does not become pure, simply by being washed.

Through the Gurdwara, the Guru’s Gate, one obtains understanding.

By being washed through this Gate, it becomes pure.

The Lord Himself sets the standards to differentiate between the dirty and the pure.

Do not think that you will automatically find a place of rest hereafter.

According to the actions one has committed, so does the mortal become.

He Himself bestows the Ambrosial Name of the Lord.

Such a mortal departs with honor and renown;

his life is embellished and redeemed, and the trumpets resound with his glory. Why speak of poor mortals?

His glory shall echo throughout the three worlds.

O Nanak, he himself shall be enraptured,

and he shall save his entire ancestry. || 1 || 4 || 6 ||

English Translation :

BILAAVAL, FIFTH MEHL:

Try to meditate, and contemplate the source of peace,

and bliss will come to you.

Chanting, and meditating on the Name of the Lord of the Universe,

perfect understanding is achieved. || 1 ||

Meditating on the Lotus Feet of the Guru,

and chanting the Name of the Lord, I live.

Worshipping the Supreme Lord God in adoration, my mouth drinks in the Ambrosial Nectar. || 1 || Pause ||

All beings and creatures dwell in peace; the minds of all yearn for the Lord.

Those who continually remember the Lord, do good deeds for others;

they harbor no ill will towards anyone. || 2 ||

Blessed is that place, and blessed are those who dwell there,

where they chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

The Sermon and the Kirtan of the Lord’s Praises are sung there very often;

there is peace, poise and tranquility. || 3 ||

In my mind, I never forget the Lord; He is the Master of the masterless.

Nanak has entered the Sanctuary of God;

everything is in His hands. || 4 || 29 || 59 ||

English Translation :

WADAHANS, THIRD MEHL:

Listen, O brides of the Lord:

serve your Husband Lord, and contemplate the Word of His Shabad.

The worthless bride does not know her Husband Lord — she is deluded;

forgetting her Husband Lord, she weeps and wails.

She weeps, thinking of her Husband Lord, and she constantly cherishes His virtues; her Husband Lord does not die, or go away.

As Gurmukh, she knows Him; through the Word of His Shabad, He is realized. Through True Love, she merges with Him.

She who does not know her Husband Lord, the Architect of karma, is deluded by falsehood — she herself is false.

Listen, O brides of the Lord: serve your Husband Lord, and contemplate the Word of His Shabad. || 1 ||

He Himself created the whole world; the world comes and goes.

The love of Maya has ruined the world; people die,

to be re-born, over and over again.

People die to be re-born, over and over again,

while their sins steadily increase;

without spiritual wisdom, they are deluded.

Without the Shabad, the Husband Lord is not found;

the worthless, false bride wastes her life away, weeping and wailing.

He is my Beloved Husband Lord, the Life of the World — for whom should I weep? They alone weep, who forget their Husband Lord. He Himself created the whole world; the world comes and goes. || 2 ||

That Husband Lord is True, forever True;

He does not die or go away. The ignorant soul-bride wanders in delusion; in the love of duality, she sits like a widow.

She sits like a widow, in the love of duality; infatuated with Maya, she suffers in pain.

She grows old, and her body withers away.

Whatever has come, shall all pass away;

through the love of duality, all suffer in pain.

They do not see the Messenger of Death;

they long for Maya, and their consciousness is attached to greed.

That Husband Lord is True, forever True; He does not die or go away. || 3 ||

Some weep and wail, separated from their Husband Lord;

the blind ones do not know that their Husband is with them.

By Guru’s Grace, they meet their True Husband, and cherish Him always deep within.

She cherishes her Husband deep within herself — He is always with her,

but the self-willed manmukhs think that He is far away.

This body rolls in the dust, and is totally useless;

it does not realize the Presence of its Lord and Master.

Nanak, that soul-bride is united in Union;

she cherishes her Beloved Husband forever, deep within.

Some weep and wail, separated from their Husband Lord;

the blind ones do not know that their Husband is with them. || 4 || 2 ||

SORATH, FIFTH MEHL:

The Lord God Himself has rid the whole world of its sins, and saved it. The Supreme Lord God extended His mercy, and confirmed His innate nature. || 1 || I have attained the Protective Sanctuary of the Lord, my King. In celestial peace and ecstasy, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, and my mind, body and being are at peace. || Pause || My True Guru is the Savior of sinners; I have placed my trust and faith in Him. The True Lord has heard Nanaks prayer, and He has forgiven everything. || 2 || 17 || 45 ||

The Lords humble servant sings the Glorious Praises of the Lords Name.

Even if someone slanders the Lords humble servant, he does not give up his own goodness. || 1 || Pause ||

Whatever the Lord and Master does, He does by Himself;

the Lord Himself does the deeds.

The Lord and Master Himself imparts understanding;

the Lord Himself inspires us to speak. || 1 ||

The Lord Himself directs the evolution of the world of the five elements;

He Himself infuses the five senses into it.

O servant Nanak, the Lord Himself unites us with the True Guru;

He Himself resolves the conflicts. || 2 || 3 ||

JAITSREE, FIFTH MEHL, VAAR WITH SHALOKS:

ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU:

SHALOK:

The Lord grants His Grace, and dispels the pains of those who sing the Kirtan of the Praises of His Name.

When the Lord God shows His Kindness, O Nanak, one is no longer engrossed in Maya. || 1 ||

The burning fire has been put out; God Himself has saved me.

Meditate on that God, O Nanak, who created the universe. || 2 ||

PAUREE: When God becomes merciful, Maya does not cling.

Millions of sins are eliminated, by meditating on the Naam, the Name of the One Lord.

The body is made immaculate and pure, bathing in the dust of the feet of the Lords humble servants.

The mind and body become contented, finding the Perfect Lord God.

One is saved, along with his family, and all his ancestors. || 18 ||

English Translation :

JAITSREE, FOURTH MEHL:

The Lords Name does not abide within their hearts

their mothers should have been sterile.

These bodies wander around, forlorn and abandoned, without the Name;

their lives waste away, and they die, crying out in pain. || 1 ||

O my mind, chant the Name of the Lord, the Lord within you.

The Merciful Lord God, Har, Har, has showered me with His Mercy;

the Guru has imparted spiritual wisdom to me,

and my mind has been instructed. || Pause ||

In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Kirtan of the Lords Praise brings the most noble and exalted status;

the Lord is found through the True Guru.

I am a sacrifice to my True Guru, who has revealed the Lords hidden Name to me. || 2 ||

By great good fortune, I obtained the Blessed Vision of the Darshan of the Holy;

it removes all stains of sin.

I have found the True Guru, the great, all-knowing King;

He has shared with me the many Glorious Virtues of the Lord. || 3 ||

Those, unto whom the Lord, the Life of the world, has shown Mercy,

enshrine Him within their hearts, and cherish Him in their minds.

The Righteous Judge of Dharma, in the Court of the Lord,

has torn up my papers; servant Nanaks account has been settled. || 4 || 5 ||
