2Raag Jaijaavantee, Ninth Mehla:

3Meditate in remembrance on the Lord - meditate on the Lord; this alone shall be of use to you.

4Abandon your association with Maya, and take shelter in the Sanctuary of God.

5Remember that the pleasures of the world are false; this whole show is just an illusion. ||1||Pause||

6You must understand that this wealth is just a dream. Why are you so proud?

7The empires of the earth are like walls of sand. ||1||

8Servant Nanak speaks the Truth: your body shall perish and pass away.

9Moment by moment, yesterday passed. Today is passing as well. ||2||1||

10Jaijaavantee, Ninth Mehla:

11Meditate on the Lord - vibrate on the Lord; your life is slipping away.

12Why am I telling you this again and again? You fool - why don't you understand?

13Your body is like a hail-stone; it melts away in no time at all. ||1||Pause||

14So give up all your doubts, and utter the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

15At the very last moment, this alone shall go along with you. ||1||

16Forget the poisonous sins of corruption, and enshrine the Praises of God in your heart.

17Servant Nanak proclaims that this opportunity is slipping away. ||2||2||

18Jaijaavantee, Ninth Mehla:

19O mortal, what will your condition be?

20In this world, you have not listened to the Lord's Name.

21You are totally engrossed in corruption and sin; you have not turned your mind away from them at all. ||1||Pause||

22You obtained this human life, but you have not remembered the Lord in meditation, even for an instant.

23For the sake of pleasure, you have become subservient to your woman, and now your feet are bound. ||1||

24Servant Nanak proclaims that the vast expanse of this world is just a dream.

25Why not meditate on the Lord? Even Maya is His slave. ||2||3||

26Jaijaavantee, Ninth Mehla:

27Slipping away - your life is uselessly slipping away.

28Night and day, you listen to the Puraanas, but you do not understand them, you ignorant fool!

29Death has arrived; now where will you run? ||1||Pause||
