1Some are hungry and some are satisfied and satiated, but all lean on Your Support. ||3||

2The True Lord Himself is True, True, True.

3He is woven into the essence of His devotees, through and through.

4He Himself is hidden, and He Himself is revealed. He Himself spreads Himself out. ||4||

5Forever, forever and ever, He shall always exist.

6He is lofty, inaccessible, unfathomable and infinite.

7He fills the empty, and empties out the filled; such are the plays and dramas of my Lord and Master. ||5||

8With my mouth, I praise my True Lord King.

9With my eyes, I behold the inaccessible and unfathomable Lord.

10Listening, listening with my ears, my mind and body are rejuvenated; my Lord and Master saves all. ||6||

11He created the creation, and gazes upon what He has created.

12All beings and creatures meditate on Him.

13He Himself knows His creative power; He blesses with His Glance of Grace. ||7||

14Where the Saints gather together and sit, God dwells close at hand.

15They abide in bliss and joy, beholding the Lord's wondrous play.

16They sing the Glories of the Lord, and the unstruck sound current of His Bani; O Nanak, His slaves remain conscious of Him. ||8||

17Coming and going is all Your wondrous play.

18Creating the Creation, You gaze upon Your infinite play.

19Creating the Creation, You Yourself cherish and nurture it. ||9||

20Listening, listening to Your Glory, I live.

21Forever and ever, I am a sacrifice to You.

22With my palms pressed together, I meditate in remembrance on You, day and night, O my inaccessible, infinite Lord and Master. ||10||

23Other than You, who else should I praise?

24I meditate on the One and Only Lord within my mind.

25Realizing the Hukam of Your Will, Your humble servants are enraptured; this is the achievement of Your devotees. ||11||

26Following the Guru's Teachings, I meditate on the True Lord within my mind.

27Following the Guru's Teachings, I am immersed in the Lord's Love.

28Following the Guru's Teachings, all bonds are broken, and this doubt and emotional attachment are burnt away. ||12||

29Wherever He keeps me, is my place of rest.

30Whatever naturally happens, I accept that as good.

31Hatred is gone - I have no hatred at all; I see the One Lord in all. ||13||

32Fear has been removed, and darkness has been dispelled.

33The all-powerful, primal, detached Lord God has been revealed.

34Forsaking self-conceit, I have entered His Sanctuary, and I work for Him. ||14||

35Rare are those few, very blessed people, who come into the world,

36and meditate on their Lord and Master, twenty-four hours a day.

37Associating with such humble people, all are saved, and their families are saved as well. ||15||

38This is the blessing which I have received from my Lord and Master.

39Twenty-four hours a day, with my palms pressed together, I meditate on Him.

40I chant the Naam, and through the Naam, I intuitively merge into the Lord; O Nanak, may I be blessed with the Naam, and ever repeat it. ||16||1||6||

41Maaroo, Fifth Mehla:

42Do not be fooled by appearances, you fool.

43This is a false attachment to the expanse of an illusion.

44No one can remain in this world; only the One Lord is permanent and unchanging. ||1||

45Seek the Sanctuary of the Perfect Guru.

46He shall eradicate all emotional attachment, sorrow and doubt.

47He shall administer the medicine, the Mantra of the One Name. Sing the True Name within your heart. ||2||
