1All the desires of my mind have been perfectly fulfilled.

2Twenty-four hours a day, I sing of the Lord God.

3The True Guru has imparted this perfect wisdom. ||1||

4Very fortunate are those who love the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

5Associating with them, we cross over the world-ocean. ||1||Pause||

6They are spiritual teachers, who meditate in remembrance on the One Lord.

7Wealthy are those who have a discriminating intellect.

8Noble are those who remember their Lord and Master in meditation.

9Honorable are those who understand their own selves. ||2||

10By Guru's Grace, I have obtained the supreme status.

11Day and night I meditate on the Glories of God.

12My bonds are broken, and my hopes are fulfilled.

13The Feet of the Lord now abide in my heart. ||3||

14Says Nanak, one whose karma is perfect

15that humble being enters the Sanctuary of God.

16He himself is pure, and he sanctifies all.

17His tongue chants the Name of the Lord, the Source of Nectar. ||4||35||48||

18Bhairao, Fifth Mehla:

19Repeating the Naam, the Name of the Lord, no obstacles block the way.

20Listening to the Naam, the Messenger of Death runs far away.

21Repeating the Naam, all pains vanish.

22Chanting the Naam, the Lord's Lotus Feet dwell within. ||1||

23Meditating, vibrating the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is unobstructed devotional worship.

24Sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord with loving affection and energy. ||1||Pause||

25Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, the Eye of Death cannot see you.

26Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, demons and ghosts shall not touch you.

27Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, attachment and pride shall not bind you.

28Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, you shall not be consigned to the womb of reincarnation. ||2||

29Any time is a good time to meditate in remembrance on the Lord.

30Among the masses, only a few meditate in remembrance on the Lord.

31Social class or no social class, anyone may meditate on the Lord.

32Whoever meditates on Him is emancipated. ||3||

33Chant the Name of the Lord in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

34Perfect is the Love of the Lord's Name.

35O God, shower Your Mercy on Nanak,

36that he may think of you with each and every breath. ||4||36||49||

37Bhairao, Fifth Mehla:

38He Himself is the Shaastras, and He Himself is the Vedas.

39He knows the secrets of each and every heart.

40He is the Embodiment of Light; all beings belong to Him.

41The Creator, the Cause of causes, the Perfect All-powerful Lord. ||1||

42Grab hold of the Support of God, O my mind.

43As Gurmukh, worship and adore His Lotus Feet; enemies and pains shall not even approach you. ||1||Pause||

44He Himself is the Essence of the forests and fields, and all the three worlds.

45The universe is strung on His Thread.

46He is the Uniter of Shiva and Shakti - mind and matter.

47He Himself is in the detachment of Nirvaanaa, and He Himself is the Enjoyer. ||2||

48Wherever I look, there He is.

49Without Him, there is no one at all.

50In the Love of the Naam, the world-ocean is crossed.

51Nanak sings His Glorious Praises in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||3||

52Liberation, the ways and means of enjoyment and union are under His Control.

53His humble servant lacks nothing.

54That person, with whom the Lord, in His Mercy, is pleased

55- O slave Nanak, that humble servant is blessed. ||4||37||50||

56Bhairao, Fifth Mehla:

57The minds of the Lord's devotee are filled with bliss.

58They become stable and permanent, and all their anxiety is gone.
