1I am Your beautiful bride, Your servant and slave. I have no nobility without my Husband Lord. ||1||

2When my Lord and Master listened to my prayer, He hurried to shower me with His Mercy.

3Says Nanak, I have become just like my Husband Lord; I am blessed with honor, nobility and the lifestyle of goodness. ||2||3||7||

4Malaar, Fifth Mehla:

5Meditate on the True Name of your Beloved.

6The pains and sorrows of the terrifying world-ocean are dispelled, by enshrining the Image of the Guru within your heart. ||1||Pause||

7Your enemies shall be destroyed, and all the evil-doers shall perish, when you come to the Sanctuary of the Lord.

8The Savior Lord has given me His Hand and saved me; I have obtained the wealth of the Naam. ||1||

9Granting His Grace, He has eradicated all my sins; He has placed the Immaculate Naam within my mind.

10O Nanak, the Treasure of Virtue fills my mind; I shall never again suffer in pain. ||2||4||8||

14I meditate in remembrance on Your Feet, O my Beloved; my heart is filled with hope.

15I offer my prayer to the humble Saints; my mind thirsts for the Blssed Vision of the Lord's Darshan. ||1||

16Separation is death, and Union with the Lord is life. Please bless Your humble servant with Your Darshan.

17O my God, please be Merciful, and bless Nanak with the support, the life and wealth of the Naam. ||2||5||9||

18Malaar, Fifth Mehla:

19Now, I have become just like my Beloved.

20Dwelling on my Sovereign Lord King, I have found peace. Rain down, O peace-giving cloud. ||1||Pause||

21I cannot forget Him, even for an instant; He is the Ocean of peace. Through the Naam, the Name of the Lord, I have obtained the nine treasures.

22My perfect destiny has been activated, meeting with the Saints, my help and support. ||1||

23Peace has welled up, and all pain has been dispelled, lovingly attuned to the Supreme Lord God.

24The arduous and terrifying world-ocean is crossed over, O Nanak, by meditating on the Feet of the Lord. ||2||6||10||

25Malaar, Fifth Mehla:

26The clouds have rained down all over the world.

27My Beloved Lord God has become merciful to me; I am blessed with ecstasy, bliss and peace. ||1||Pause||

28My sorrows are erased, and all my thirsts are quenched, meditating on the Supreme Lord God.

29In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, death and birth come to an end, and the mortal does not wander anywhere, ever again. ||1||

30My mind and body are imbued with the Immaculate Naam, the Name of the Lord; I am lovingly attuned to His Lotus Feet.

31God has made Nanak His Own; slave Nanak seeks His Sanctuary. ||2||7||11||

32Malaar, Fifth Mehla:

33Separated from the Lord, how can any living being live?

34My consciousness is filled with yearning and hope to meet my Lord, and drink in the sublime essence of His Lotus Feet. ||1||Pause||

35Those who are thirsty for You, O my Beloved, are not separated from You.

36Those who forget my Beloved Lord are dead and dying. ||1||
