1By pre-ordained destiny, I have searched and found God.

2In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, the Lord of the World abides.

3Meeting with the Guru, I have come to Your Door.

4O Lord, please bless servant Nanak with the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. ||4||1||

5Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

6Serving God, His humble servant is glorified.

7Unfulfilled sexual desire, unresolved anger and unsatisfied greed are eradicated.

8Your Name is the treasure of Your humble servant.

9Singing His Praises, I am in love with the Blessed Vision of God's Darshan. ||1||

10You are known, O God, by Your devotees.

11Breaking their bonds, You emancipate them. ||1||Pause||

12Those humble beings who are imbued with God's Love

13find peace in God's Congregation.

14They alone understand this, to whom this subtle essence comes.

15Beholding it, and gazing upon it, in their minds they are wonderstruck. ||2||

16They are at peace, the most exalted of all,

17within whose hearts God dwells.

18They are stable and unchanging; they do not come and go in reincarnation.

19Night and day, they sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord God. ||3||

20All bow down in humble respect to those

21whose minds are filled with the Formless Lord.

22Show mercy unto me, O my Divine Lord and Master.

23May Nanak be saved, by serving these humble beings. ||4||2||

24Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

25Singing His Glorious Praises, the mind is in ecstasy.

26Twenty-four hours a day, I meditate in remembrance on God.

27Remembering Him in meditation, the sins go away.

28I fall at the Feet of that Guru. ||1||

29O beloved Saints, please bless me with wisdom;

30let me meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and be emancipated. ||1||Pause||

31The Guru has shown me the straight path;

32I have abandoned everything else. I am enraptured with the Name of the Lord.

33I am forever a sacrifice to that Guru;

34I meditate in remembrance on the Lord, through the Guru. ||2||

35The Guru carries those mortal beings across, and saves them from drowning.

36By His Grace, they are not enticed by Maya;

37in this world and the next, they are embellished and exalted by the Guru.

38I am forever a sacrifice to that Guru. ||3||

39From the most ignorant, I have been made spiritually wise,

40through the Unspoken Speech of the Perfect Guru.

41The Divine Guru, O Nanak, is the Supreme Lord God.

42By great good fortune, I serve the Lord. ||4||3||

43Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

44Eradicating all my pains, He has blessed me with peace, and inspired me to chant His Name.

45In His Mercy, He has enjoined me to His service, and has purged me of all my sins. ||1||

46I am only a child; I seek the Sanctuary of God the Merciful.

47Erasing my demerits and faults, God has made me His Own. My Guru, the Lord of the World, protects me. ||1||Pause||

48My sicknesses and sins were erased in an instant, when the Lord of the World became merciful.

49With each and very breath, I worship and adore the Supreme Lord God; I am a sacrifice to the True Guru. ||2||

50My Lord and Master is Inaccessible, Unfathomable and Infinite. His limits cannot be found.

51We earn the profit, and become wealthy, meditating on our God. ||3||
