1By the Grace of the Saints, I have obtained the supreme status. ||2||

2The Lord is the Help and Support of His humble servant.

3I have found peace, falling at the feet of His slaves.

4When selfishness is gone, then one becomes the Lord Himself;

5seek the Sanctuary of the treasure of mercy. ||3||

6When someone finds the One he has desired,

7then where should he go to look for Him?

8I have become steady and stable, and I dwell in the seat of peace.

9By Guru's Grace, Nanak has entered the home of peace. ||4||110||

10Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

11The merits of taking millions of ceremonial cleansing baths,

12the giving of hundreds of thousands, billions and trillions in charity

13- these are obtained by those whose minds are filled with the Name of the Lord. ||1||

14Those who sing the Glories of the Lord of the World are totally pure.

15Their sins are erased, in the Sanctuary of the Kind and Holy Saints. ||Pause||

16The merits of performing all sorts of austere acts of penance and self-discipline,

17earning huge profits and seeing one's desires fulfilled

18- these are obtained by chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, with the tongue. ||2||

19The merits of reciting the Simritees, the Shaastras and the Vedas,

20knowledge of the science of Yoga, spiritual wisdom and the pleasure of miraculous spiritual powers

21- these come by surrendering the mind and meditating on the Name of God. ||3||

22The wisdom of the Inaccessible and Infinite Lord is incomprehensible.

23Meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and contemplating the Naam within our hearts,

24O Nanak, God has showered His Mercy upon us. ||4||111||

25Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

26Meditating, meditating, meditating in remembrance, I have found peace.

27I have enshrined the Lotus Feet of the Guru within my heart. ||1||

28The Guru, the Lord of the Universe, the Supreme Lord God, is perfect.

29Worshipping Him, my mind has found a lasting peace. ||Pause||

30Night and day, I meditate on the Guru, and the Name of the Guru.

31Thus all my works are brought to perfection. ||2||

32Beholding the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, my mind has become cool and tranquil,

33and the sinful mistakes of countless incarnations have been washed away. ||3||

34Says Nanak, where is fear now, O Siblings of Destiny?

35The Guru Himself has preserved the honor of His servant. ||4||112||

36Gauree, Fifth Mehla:

37The Lord Himself is the Help and Support of His servants.

38He always cherishes them, like their father and mother. ||1||

39In God's Sanctuary, everyone is saved.

40That Perfect True Lord is the Doer, the Cause of causes. ||Pause||

41My mind now dwells in the Creator Lord.

42My fears have been dispelled, and my soul has found the most sublime peace. ||2||

43The Lord has granted His Grace, and saved His humble servant.

44The sinful mistakes of so many incarnations have been washed away. ||3||

45The Greatness of God cannot be described.

46Servant Nanak is forever in His Sanctuary. ||4||113||

47Raag Gauree Chaytee, Fifth Mehla, Dho-Padhay:

48One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

49The power of the Lord is universal and perfect, O Siblings of Destiny.

50So no pain can ever afflict me. ||1||Pause||

51Whatever the Lord's slave wishes, O mother,

52the Creator Himself causes that to be done. ||1||

53God causes the slanderers to lose their honor.

54Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Fearless Lord. ||2||114||
