1You shall save yourself, and save all your generations as well. You shall go to the Court of the Lord with honor. ||6||

2All the continents, nether worlds, islands and worlds

3God Himself has made them all subject to death.

4The One Imperishable Lord Himself is unmoving and unchanging. Meditating on Him, one becomes unchanging. ||7||

5The Lord's servant becomes like the Lord.

6Do not think that, because of his human body, he is different.

7The waves of the water rise up in various ways, and then the water merges again in water. ||8||

8A beggar begs for charity at His Door.

9When God pleases, He takes pity on him.

10Please bless me with the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, to satisfy my mind, O Lord. Through the Kirtan of Your Praises, my mind is held steady. ||9||

11The Beauteous Lord and Master is not controlled in any way.

12The Lord does that which pleases the Saints of the Lord.

13He does whatever they wish to be done; nothing blocks their way at His Door. ||10||

14Wherever the mortal is confronted with difficulty,

15there he should meditate on the Lord of the Universe.

16Where there are no children, spouse or friends, there the Lord Himself comes to the rescue. ||11||

17The Great Lord and Master is inaccessible and unfathomable.

18How can anyone meet with God, the self-suficient One?

19Those who have had the noose cut away from around their necks, whom God has set back upon the Path, obtain a place in the Sangat, the Congregation. ||12||

20One who realizes the Hukam of the Lord's Command is said to be His servant.

21He endures both bad and good equally.

22When egotism is silenced, then one comes to know the One Lord. Such a Gurmukh intuitively merges in the Lord. ||13||

23The devotees of the Lord dwell forever in peace.

24With a child-like, innocent nature, they remain detached, turning away from the world.

25They enjoy various pleasures in many ways; God caresses them, like a father caressing his son. ||14||

26He is inaccessible and unfathomable; His value cannot be estimated.

27We meet Him, only when He causes us to meet.

28The Lord is revealed to those humble Gurmukhs, who have such pre-ordained destiny inscribed upon their foreheads. ||15||

29You Yourself are the Creator Lord, the Cause of causes.

30You created the Universe, and You support the whole earth.

31Servant Nanak seeks the Sanctuary of Your Door, O Lord; if it is Your Will, please preserve his honor. ||16||1||5||

32Maaroo, Solahas, Fifth Mehla:

33One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

34Whatever is seen is You, O One Lord.

35What the ears hear is the Word of Your Bani.

36There is nothing else to be seen at all. You give support to all. ||1||

37You Yourself are conscious of Your Creation.

38You Yourself established Yourself, O God.

39Creating Yourself, You formed the expanse of the Universe; You Yourself cherish and sustain each and every heart. ||2||

40You created some to hold great and royal courts.

41Some turn away from the world in renunciation, and some maintain their households.
