1Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

2O mother, how fruitful is the birth of one who sings the Glories of God, and enshrines love for the Supreme Lord God. ||1||Pause||

3Beautiful, wise, brave and divine is one who obtains the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

4He chants the Naam, the Name of the Lord, with his tongue, and does not have to wander in reincarnation again. ||1||

5The Perfect Lord God pervades his mind and body; he does not look upon any other.

6Hell and disease do not afflict one who joins the Company of the Lord's humble servants, O Nanak; the Lord attaches him to the hem of His robe. ||2||14||

7Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

8His fickle mind is entangled in a dream.

9He does not even understand this much, that someday he shall have to depart; he has gone crazy with Maya. ||1||Pause||

10He is engrossed in the delight of the flower's color; he strives only to indulge in corruption.

11Hearing about greed, he feels happy in his mind, and he runs after it. ||1||

12Wandering and roaming all around, I have endured great pain, but now, I have come to the door of the Saint.

13Granting His Grace, the Supreme Lord Master has blended Nanak with Himself. ||2||15||

14Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

15All peace is found in the Guru's feet.

16They drive away my sins and purify my mind; their Support carries me across. ||1||Pause||

17This is the labor which I perform: worship, flower-offerings, service and devotion.

18My mind blossoms forth and is enlightened, and I am not cast into the womb again. ||1||

19I behold the fruitful vision of the Saint; this is the meditation I have taken.

20The Lord Master has become Merciful to Nanak, and he has entered the Sanctuary of the Holy. ||2||16||

21Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

22Offer your prayer to your Lord.

23You shall obtain the four blessings, and the treasures of bliss, pleasure, peace, poise and the spiritual powers of the Siddhas. ||1||Pause||

24Renounce your self-conceit, and grasp hold of the Guru's feet; hold tight to the hem of God's robe.

25The heat of the ocean of fire does not affect one who longs for the Lord and Master's Sanctuary. ||1||

26Again and again, God puts up with the millions of sins of the supremely ungrateful ones.

27The embodiment of mercy, the Perfect Transcendent Lord - Nanak longs for His Sanctuary. ||2||17||

28Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

29Place the Guru's feet within your heart,

30and all illness, sorrow and pain shall be dispelled; all suffering shall come to an end. ||1||Pause||

31The sins of countless incarnations are erased, as if one has taken purifying baths at millions of sacred shrines.

32The treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is obtained by singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, and centering one's mind in meditation on Him. ||1||

33Showing His Mercy, the Lord has made me His slave; breaking my bonds, He has saved me.

34I live by chanting and meditating on the Naam, and the Bani of Your Word; slave Nanak is a sacrifice to You. ||2||18||

36Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

37O mother, I long to see the Feet of God.
