1The Word of the Guru's Shabad is unchanging, forever and ever.

2All pains and afflictions run away from those, whose minds are filled with the Word of the Guru's Bani. ||1||

3Imbued with the Lord's Love, they sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

4They are liberated, bathing in the dust of the feet of the Holy. ||1||Pause||

5By Guru's Grace, they are carried across to the other shore;

6they are rid of fear, doubt and corruption.

7The Guru's Feet abide deep within their minds and bodies.

8The Holy are fearless; they take to the Sanctuary of the Lord. ||2||

9They are blessed with abundant bliss, happiness, pleasure and peace.

10Enemies and pains do not even approach them.

11The Perfect Guru makes them His Own, and protects them.

12Chanting the Lord's Name, they are rid of all their sins. ||3||

13The Saints, spiritual companions and Sikhs are exalted and uplifted.

14The Perfect Guru leads them to meet God.

15The painful noose of death and rebirth is snapped.

16Says Nanak, the Guru covers their faults. ||4||8||

17Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

18The Perfect True Guru has bestowed the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

19I am blessed with bliss and happiness, emancipation and eternal peace. All my affairs have been resolved. ||1||Pause||

20The Lotus Feet of the Guru abide within my mind.

21I am rid of pain, suffering, doubt and fraud. ||1||

22Rise early, and sing the Glorious Word of God's Bani.

23Twenty-four hours a day, meditate in remembrance on the Lord, O mortal. ||2||

24Inwardly and outwardly, God is everywhere.

25Wherever I go, He is always with me, my Helper and Support. ||3||

26With my palms pressed together, I offer this prayer.

27O Nanak, I meditate forever on the Lord, the Treasure of Virtue. ||4||9||

28Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

29The Supreme Lord God is All-wise and All-knowing.

30The Perfect Guru is found by great good fortune. I am a sacrifice to the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. ||1||Pause||

31My sins are cut away, through the Word of the Shabad, and I have found contentment.

32I have become worthy of worshipping the Naam in adoration.

33In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I have been enlightened.

34The Lord's Lotus Feet abide within my mind. ||1||

35The One who made us, protects and preserves us.

36God is Perfect, the Master of the masterless.

37Those, upon whom He showers His Mercy

38- they have perfect karma and conduct. ||2||

39They sing the Glories of God, continually, continuously, forever fresh and new.

40They do not wander in the 8.4 million incarnations.

41Here and hereafter, they worship the Lord's Feet.

42Their faces are radiant, and they are honored in the Court of the Lord. ||3||

43That person, upon whose forehead the Guru places His Hand

44out of millions, how rare is that slave.

45He sees God pervading and permeating the water, the land and the sky.

46Nanak is saved by the dust of the feet of such a humble being. ||4||10||

47Prabhaatee, Fifth Mehla:

48I am a sacrifice to my Perfect Guru.

49By His Grace, I chant and meditate on the Lord, Har, Har. ||1||Pause||

50Listening to the Ambrosial Word of His Bani, I am exalted and enraptured.

51My corrupt and poisonous entanglements are gone. ||1||

52I am in love with the True Word of His Shabad.

53The Lord God has come into my consciousness. ||2||

54Chanting the Naam, I am enlightened.
