1You pulled me out of the deep, dark well onto the dry ground.

2Showering Your Mercy, You blessed Your servant with Your Glance of Grace.

3I sing the Glorious Praises of the Perfect, Immortal Lord. By speaking and hearing these Praises, they are not used up. ||4||

4Here and hereafter, You are our Protector.

5In the womb of the mother, You cherish and nurture the baby.

6The fire of Maya does not affect those who are imbued with the Lord's Love; they sing His Glorious Praises. ||5||

7What Praises of Yours can I chant and contemplate?

8Deep within my mind and body, I behold Your Presence.

9You are my Friend and Companion, my Lord and Master. Without You, I do not know any other at all. ||6||

10O God, that one, unto whom You have given shelter,

11is not touched by the hot winds.

12O my Lord and Master, You are my Sanctuary, the Giver of peace. Chanting, meditating on You in the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, You are revealed. ||7||

13You are Exalted, Unfathomable, Infinite and Invaluable.

14You are my True Lord and Master. I am Your servant and slave.

15You are the King, Your Sovereign Rule is True. Nanak is a sacrifice, a sacrifice to You. ||8||3||37||

16Maajh, Fifth Mehla, Second House:

17Continually, continuously, remember the Merciful Lord.

18Never forget Him from your mind. ||Pause||

19Join the Society of the Saints,

20and you shall not have to go down the path of Death.

21Take the Provisions of the Lord's Name with you, and no stain shall attach itself to your family. ||1||

22Those who meditate on the Master

23shall not be thrown down into hell.

24Even the hot winds shall not touch them. The Lord has come to dwell within their minds. ||2||

25They alone are beautiful and attractive,

26who abide in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

27Those who have gathered in the wealth of the Lord's Name-they alone are deep and thoughtful and vast. ||3||

28Drink in the Ambrosial Essence of the Name,

29and live by beholding the face of the Lord's servant.

30Let all your affairs be resolved, by continually worshipping the Feet of the Guru. ||4||

31He alone meditates on the Lord of the World, whom the Lord has made His Own.

32He alone is a warrior, and he alone is the chosen one, upon whose forehead good destiny is recorded. ||5||

33Within my mind, I meditate on God.

34For me, this is like the enjoyment of princely pleasures.

35Evil does not well up within me, since I am saved, and dedicated to truthful actions. ||6||

36I have enshrined the Creator within my mind;

37I have obtained the fruits of life's rewards.

38If your Husband Lord is pleasing to your mind, then your married life shall be eternal. ||7||

39I have obtained everlasting wealth;

40I have found the Sanctuary of the Dispeller of fear.

41Grasping hold of the hem of the Lord's robe, Nanak is saved. He has won the incomparable life. ||8||4||38||

42One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

43Maajh, Fifth Mehla, Third House:

44Chanting and meditating on the Lord, the mind is held steady. ||1||Pause||

45Meditating, meditating in remembrance on the Divine Guru, one's fears are erased and dispelled. ||1||

46Entering the Sanctuary of the Supreme Lord God, how could anyone feel grief any longer? ||2||
