1Through the wealth of the Lord, I have forgotten my anxiety; through the wealth of the Lord, my doubt has been dispelled.

2From the wealth of the Lord, I have obtained the nine treasures; the true essence of the Lord has come into my hands. ||3||

3No matter how much I eat and expend this wealth, it is not exhausted; here and hereafter, it remains with me.

4Loading the treasure, Guru Nanak has given it, and this mind is imbued with the Lord's Love. ||4||2||3||

5Goojaree, Fifth Mehla:

6Remembering Him, all sins are erased, and ones generations are saved.

7So meditate continually on the Lord, Har, Har; He has no end or limitation. ||1||

8O son, this is your mother's hope and prayer,

9that you may never forget the Lord, Har, Har, even for an instant. May you ever vibrate upon the Lord of the Universe. ||1||Pause||

10May the True Guru be kind to you, and may you love the Society of the Saints.

11May the preservation of your honor by the Transcendent Lord be your clothes, and may the singing of His Praises be your food. ||2||

12So drink in forever the Ambrosial Nectar; may you live long, and may the meditative remembrance of the Lord give you infinite delight.

13May joy and pleasure be yours; may your hopes be fulfilled, and may you never be troubled by worries. ||3||

14Let this mind of yours be the bumble bee, and let the Lord's feet be the lotus flower.

15Says servant Nanak, attach your mind to them, and blossom forth like the song-bird, upon finding the rain-drop. ||4||3||4||

16Goojaree, Fifth Mehla:

17He decides to go to the west, but the Lord leads him away to the east.

18In an instant, He establishes and disestablishes; He holds all matters in His hands. ||1||

19Cleverness is of no use at all.

20Whatever my Lord and Master deems to be right - that alone comes to pass. ||1||Pause||

21In his desire to acquire land and accumulate wealth, one's breath escapes him.

22He must leave all his armies, assistants and servants; rising up, he departs to the City of Death. ||2||

23Believing himself to be unique, he clings to his stubborn mind, and shows himself off.

24That food, which the blameless people have condemned and discarded, he eats again and again. ||3||

25One, unto whom the Lord shows His natural mercy, has the noose of Death cut away from him.

26Says Nanak, one who meets the Perfect Guru, is celebrated as a householder as well as a renunciate. ||4||4||5||

27Goojaree, Fifth Mehla:

28Those humble beings who chant the treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, have their bonds broken.

29Sexual desirer, anger, the poison of Maya and egotism - they are rid of these afflictions. ||1||

30One who joins the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, and chants the Praises of the Lord,

31has his mind purified, by Guru's Grace, and he obtains the joy of all joys. ||1||Pause||

32Whatever the Lord does, he sees that as good; such is the devotional service he performs.

33He sees friends and enemies as all the same; this is the sign of the Way of Yoga. ||2||

34The all-pervading Lord is fully filling all places; why should I go anywhere else?

35He is permeating and pervading within each and every heart; I am immersed in His Love, dyed in the color of His Love. ||3||

36When the Lord of the Universe becomes kind and compassionate, then one enters the home of the Fearless Lord.
