1My heart lotus blossoms forth in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; I have renounced evil-mindedness and intellectualism. ||2||

2One who sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord, twenty-four hours a day, and remembers the Lord in meditation, who is Kind to the poor,

3saves himself, and redeems all his generations; all of his bonds are released. ||3||

4I take the Support of Your Feet, O God, O Lord and Master; you are with me through and through, God.

5Nanak has entered Your Sanctuary, God; giving him His hand, the Lord has protected him. ||4||2||32||

6Goojaree, Ashtpadheeyaa, First Mehla, First House:

7One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

8In the one village of the body, live the five thieves; they have been warned, but they still go out stealing.

9One who keeps his assets safe from the three modes and the ten passions, O Nanak, attains liberation and emancipation. ||1||

10Center your mind on the all-pervading Lord, the Wearer of garlands of the jungles.

11Let your rosary be the chanting of the Lord's Name in your heart. ||1||Pause||

12Its roots extend upwards, and its branches reach down; the four Vedas are attached to it.

13He alone reaches this tree with ease, O Nanak, who remains wakeful in the Love of the Supreme Lord God. ||2||

14The Elysian Tree is the courtyard of my house; in it are the flowers, leaves and stems of reality.

15Meditate on the self-existent, immaculate Lord, whose Light is pervading everywhere; renounce all your worldly entanglements. ||3||

16Listen, O seekers of Truth - Nanak begs you to renounce the traps of Maya.

17Reflect within your mind, that by enshrining love for the One Lord, you shall not be subject to birth and death again. ||4||

18He alone is said to be a Guru, he alone is said to be a Sikh, and he alone is said to be a physician, who knows the patient's illness.

19He is not affected by actions, responsibilities and entanglements; in the entanglements of his household, he maintains the detachment of Yoga. ||5||

20He renounces sexual desire, anger, egotism, greed, attachment and Maya.

21Within his mind, he meditates on the reality of the Imperishable Lord; by Guru's Grace he finds Him. ||6||

22Spiritual wisdom and meditation are all said to be God's gifts; all of the demons are turned white before him.

23He enjoys the taste of the honey of God's lotus; he remains awake, and does not fall asleep. ||7||

24This lotus is very deep; its leaves are the nether regions, and it is connected to the whole universe.

25Under Guru's Instruction, I shall not have to enter the womb again; I have renounced the poison of corruption, and I drink in the Ambrosial Nectar. ||8||1||

26Goojaree, First Mehla:

27Those who beg of God the Great Giver - their numbers cannot be counted.

28You, Almighty True Lord, fulfill the desires within their hearts. ||1||

29O Dear Lord, chanting, deep meditation, self-discipline and truth are my foundations.

30Bless me with Your Name, Lord, that I may find peace. Your devotional worship is a treasure over-flowing. ||1||Pause||

31Some remain absorbed in Samaadhi, their minds fixed lovingly on the One Lord; they reflect only on the Word of the Shabad.

32In that state, there is no water, land, earth or sky; only the Creator Lord Himself exists. ||2||

33There is no intoxication of Maya there, and no shadow, nor the infinite light of the sun or the moon.

34The eyes within the mind which see everything - with one glance, they see the three worlds. ||3||
