1All my hopes and desires have been forgotten; my mind is rid of its worldly entanglements.

2The Guru, in His Mercy, implanted the Naam within me; I am enraptured with the Word of the Shabad.

3Servant Nanak has obtained the inexhaustible wealth; the Lord's Name is his wealth and property. ||2||

4Pauree:

5O Lord, You are the Greatest of the Great, the Greatest of the Great, the Most Lofty and Exalted of all, the Greatest of the Great.

6Those who meditate on the Infinite Lord, who meditate on the Lord, Har, Har, Har, are rejuvenated.

7Those who sing and listen to Your Praises, O my Lord and Master, have millions of sins destroyed.

8I know that those divine beings who follow the Guru's Teachings are just like You, Lord. They are the greatest of the great, so very fortunate.

9Let everyone meditate on the Lord, who was True in the primal beginning, and True throughout the ages; He is revealed as True here and now, and He shall be True forever and ever. Servant Nanak is the slave of His slaves. ||5||

10Shalok, Fourth Mehla:

11I meditate on my Lord, the Life of the World, the Lord, chanting the Guru's Mantra.

12The Lord is Unapproachable, Inaccessible and Unfathomable; the Lord, Har, Har, has spontaneously come to meet me.

13The Lord Himself is pervading each and every heart; the Lord Himself is Endless.

14The Lord Himself enjoys all pleasures; the Lord Himself is the Husband of Maya.

15The Lord Himself gives in charity to the whole world, and all the beings and creatures which He created.

16O Merciful Lord God, please bless me with Your Bountiful Gifts; the humble Saints of the Lord beg for them.

17O God of servant Nanak, please come and meet me; I sing the Songs of the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||

18Fourth Mehla:

19The Name of the Lord God is my Best Friend. My mind and body are drenched with the Naam.

20All the hopes of the Gurmukh are fulfilled; servant Nanak is comforted, hearing the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||2||

21Pauree:

22The Lord's Sublime Name is energizing and rejuvenating. The Immaculate Lord, the Primal Being, blossoms forth.

23Maya serves at the feet of those who chant and meditate on the Lord, Har, Har, day and night.

24The Lord always looks after and cares for all His beings and creatures; He is with all, near and far.

25Those whom the Lord inspires to understand, understand; the True Guru, God, the Primal Being, is pleased with them.

26Let everyone sing the Praise of the Lord of the Universe, the Lord, the Lord of the Universe, the Lord, the Lord of the Universe; singing the Praise of the Lord, one is absorbed in His Glorious Virtues. ||6||

27Shalok, Fourth Mehla:

28O mind, even in sleep, remember the Lord God; let yourself be intuitively absorbed into the Celestial State of Samaadhi.

29Servant Nanak's mind longs for the Lord, Har, Har. As the Guru pleases, he is absorbed into the Lord, O mother. ||1||

30Fourth Mehla:

31I am in love with the One and Only Lord; the One Lord fills my consciousness.

32Servant Nanak takes the Support of the One Lord God; through the One, he obtains honor and salvation. ||2||

33Pauree:

34The Panch Shabad, the Five Primal Sounds, vibrate with the Wisdom of the Guru's Teachings; by great good fortune, the Unstruck Melody resonates and resounds.

35I see the Lord, the Source of Bliss, everywhere; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, the Lord of the Universe is revealed.

36From the primal beginning, and throughout the ages, the Lord has One Form. Through the Wisdom of the Guru's Teachings, I vibrate and meditate on the Lord God.

37O Merciful Lord God, please bless me with Your Bounty; O Lord God, please preserve and protect the honor of Your humble servant.
