Гуру Грантх Сахиб 190 · Раг Гаури · Гуру Арджан

1With my feet, I walk on the Path of my Lord and Master. ||1||

2It is a good time, when I remember Him in meditation.

3Meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, I cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||1||Pause||

4With your eyes, behold the Blessed Vision of the Saints.

5Record the Immortal Lord God within your mind. ||2||

6Listen to the Kirtan of His Praises, at the Feet of the Holy.

7Your fears of birth and death shall depart. ||3||

8Enshrine the Lotus Feet of your Lord and Master within your heart.

9Thus this human life, so difficult to obtain, shall be redeemed. ||4||51||120||

10Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

11Those, upon whom the Lord Himself showers His Mercy,

12chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord, with their tongues. ||1||

13Forgetting the Lord, superstition and sorrow shall overtake you.

14Meditating on the Naam, doubt and fear shall depart. ||1||Pause||

15Listening to the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, and singing the Lord's Kirtan,

16misfortune shall not even come near you. ||2||

17Working for the Lord, His humble servants look beautiful.

18The fire of Maya does not touch them. ||3||

19Within their minds, bodies and mouths, is the Name of the Merciful Lord.

20Nanak has renounced other entanglements. ||4||52||121||

21Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

22Renounce your cleverness, and your cunning tricks.

23Seek the Support of the Perfect Guru. ||1||

24Your pain shall depart, and in peace, you shall sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

25Meeting the Perfect Guru, let yourself be absorbed in the Lord's Love. ||1||Pause||

26The Guru has given me the Mantra of the Name of the Lord.

27My worries are forgotten, and my anxiety is gone. ||2||

28Meeting with the Merciful Guru, I am in ecstasy.

29Showering His Mercy, He has cut away the noose of the Messenger of Death. ||3||

30Says Nanak, I have found the Perfect Guru;

31Maya shall no longer harass me. ||4||53||122||

32Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

33The Perfect Guru Himself has saved me.

34The self-willed manmukhs are afflicted with misfortune. ||1||

35Chant and meditate on the Guru, the Guru, O my friend.

36Your face shall be radiant in the Court of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

37Enshrine the Feet of the Guru within your heart;

38your pains, enemies and bad luck shall be destroyed. ||2||

39The Word of the Guru's Shabad is your Companion and Helper.

40O Siblings of Destiny, all beings shall be kind to you. ||3||

41When the Perfect Guru granted His Grace,

42says Nanak, I was totally, completely fulfilled. ||4||54||123||

43Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

44Like beasts, they consume all sorts of tasty treats.

45With the rope of emotional attachment, they are bound and gagged like thieves. ||1||

46Their bodies are corpses, without the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

47They come and go in reincarnation, and are destroyed by pain. ||1||Pause||

48They wear all sorts of beautiful robes,

49but they are still just scarecrows in the field, frightening away the birds. ||2||

50All bodies are of some use,

51but those who do not meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, are totally useless. ||3||

52Says Nanak, those unto whom the Lord becomes Merciful,

53join the Saadh Sangat, and meditate on the Lord of the Universe. ||4||55||124||

54Gauree, Fifth Mehla:
