1He is the King, the King of Kings, the Emperor of Kings! Nanak lives in surrender to His Will. ||1||1||

2Aasaa, Fourth Mehla:

3That Lord is Immaculate; the Lord God is Immaculate. The Lord is Unapproachable, Unfathomable and Incomparable.

4All meditate, all meditate on You, O Dear Lord, O True Creator.

5All beings are Yours; You are the Giver of all beings.

6So meditate on the Lord, O Saints; He is the One who takes away all pain.

7The Lord Himself is the Master, and He Himself is His own servant. O Nanak, how insignificant are mortal beings! ||1||

8You are totally pervading within each and every heart; O Lord, You are the One Primal Being, All-permeating.

9Some are givers, and some are beggars; all of this is Your wondrous play!

10You Yourself are the Giver, and You Yourself are the Enjoyer. I know of no other than You.

11You are the Supreme Lord God, Infinite and Eternal; what Glorious Praises of Yours should I speak and chant?

12Unto those who serve, unto those who serve You, slave Nanak is a sacrifice. ||2||

13Those who meditate on the Lord, those who meditate on You, O Dear Lord, those humble beings dwell in peace in this world.

14They are liberated, they are liberated, who meditate on the Lord; the noose of Death is cut away from them.

15Those who meditate on the Fearless One, on the Fearless Lord, all their fears are dispelled.

16Those who have served, those who have served my Dear Lord, are absorbed into the Being of the Lord, Har, Har.

17Blessed are they, blessed are they, who have meditated on the Dear Lord; slave Nanak is a sacrifice to them. ||3||

18Devotion to You, devotion to You, is a treasure, overflowing, infinite and endless.

19Your devotees, Your devotees praise You, O Dear Lord, in many and various ways.

20For You, so many, for You, so very many, O Dear Lord, perform worship and adoration; they practice penance and endlessly chant in meditation.

21For You, many - for You, so very many read the various Simritees and Shaastras; they perform religious rituals and the six ceremonies.

22Those devotees, those devotees are good, O servant Nanak, who are pleasing to my Lord God. ||4||

23You are the Primal Being, the Unrivalled Creator Lord; there is no other as Great as You.

24You are the One, age after age; forever and ever, You are One and the same. You are the Eternal, Unchanging Creator.

25Whatever pleases You comes to pass. Whatever You Yourself do, happens.

26You Yourself created the entire Universe, and having done so, You Yourself shall destroy it all.

27Servant Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Creator, the Knower of all. ||5||2||
