古鲁·格兰特·萨希布 380 · Raag Aasaa · Guru Arjan Dev Ji

1He may proclaim, ""I can kill anyone, I can capture anyone, and I can release anyone.""

2But when the Order comes from the Supreme Lord God, he departs and leaves in a day. ||2||

3He may perform all sorts of religious rituals and good actions, but he does not know the Creator Lord, the Doer of all.

4He teaches, but does not practice what he preaches; he does not realize the essential reality of the Word of the Shabad.

5Naked he came, and naked he shall depart; he is like an elephant, throwing dust on himself. ||3||

6O Saints, and friends, listen to me: all this world is false.

7Continually claiming, ""Mine, mine"", the mortals are drowned; the fools waste away and die.

8Meeting the Guru, O Nanak, I meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; through the True Name, I am emancipated. ||4||1||38||

9Raag Aasaa, Fifth House, Fifth Mehla:

10One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

11The whole world is asleep in doubt; it is blinded by worldly entanglements.

12How rare is that humble servant of the Lord who is awake and aware. ||1||

13The mortal is intoxicated with the great enticement of Maya, which is dearer to him than life.

14How rare is the one who renounces it. ||2||

15The Lord's Lotus Feet are incomparably beautiful; so is the Mantra of the Saint.

16How rare is that holy person who is attached to them. ||3||

17O Nanak, in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, the love of divine knowledge is awakened;

18the Lord's Mercy is bestowed upon those who are blessed with such good destiny. ||4||1||39||

19One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

20Raag Aasaa, Sixth House, Fifth Mehla:

21Whatever pleases You is acceptable to me; that alone brings peace and ease to my mind.

22You are the Doer, the Cause of causes, All-powerful and Infinite; there is none other than You. ||1||

23Your humble servants sing Your Glorious Praises with enthusiasm and love.

24That alone is good advice, wisdom and cleverness for Your humble servant, which You do or cause to be done. ||1||Pause||

25Your Name is Ambrosial Nectar, O Beloved Lord; in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I have obtained its sublime essence.

26Those humble beings are satisfied and fulfilled, singing the Praises of the Lord, the treasure of peace. ||2||

27One who has Your Support, O Lord Master, is not afflicted by anxiety.

28One who is blessed by Your Kind Mercy, is the best, the most fortunate king. ||3||

29Doubt, attachment, and deceit have all disappeared, since I obtained the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan.

30Dealing in the Naam, O Nanak, we become truthful, and in the Love of the Lord's Name, we are absorbed. ||4||1 | 40||

31Aasaa, Fifth Mehla:

32He washes off the filth of other peoples' incarnations, but he obtains the rewards of his own actions.

33He has no peace in this world, and he has no place in the Court of the Lord. In the City of Death, he is tortured. ||1||

34The slanderer loses his life in vain.

35He cannot succeed in anything, and in the world hereafter, he finds no place at all. ||1||Pause||

36Such is the fate of the wretched slanderer - what can the poor creature do?

37He is ruined there, where no one can protect him; with whom should he lodge his complaint? ||2||
