1Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

2I have looked in so many ways, but there is no other like the Lord.

3On all the continents and islands, He is permeating and fully pervading; He is in all worlds. ||1||Pause||

4He is the most unfathomable of the unfathomable; who can chant His Praises? My mind lives by hearing news of Him.

5People in the four stages of life, and in the four social classes are liberated, by serving You, Lord. ||1||

6The Guru has implanted the Word of His Shabad within me; I have attained the supreme status. My sense of duality has been dispelled, and now, I am at peace.

7Says Nanak, I have easily crossed over the terrifying world-ocean, obtaining the treasure of the Lord's Name. ||2||2||33||

8Raag Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla, Sixth House:

9One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

10Know that there is One and only One Lord.

11O Gurmukh, know that He is One. ||1||Pause||

12Why are you wandering around? O Siblings of Destiny, don't wander around; He is permeating and pervading everywhere. ||1||

13As the fire in the forest, without control, cannot serve any purpose

14just so, without the Guru, one cannot attain the Gate of the Lord.

15Joining the Society of the Saints, renounce your ego; says Nanak, in this way, the supreme treasure is obtained. ||2||1||34||

16Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

17His state cannot be known. ||1||Pause||

18How can I behold Him through clever tricks? Those who tell this story are wonder-struck and amazed. ||1||

19The servants of God, the celestial singers, the Siddhas and the seekers,

20the angelic and divine beings, Brahma and those like Brahma,

21and the four Vedas proclaim, day and night,

22that the Lord and Master is inaccessible, unapproachable and unfathomable.

23Endless, endless are His Glories, says Nanak; they cannot be described - they are beyond our reach. ||2||2||35||

24Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

25I meditate, and sing of the Creator Lord.

26I have become fearless, and I have found peace, poise and bliss, remembering the infinite Lord. ||1||Pause||

27The Guru, of the most fruitful image, has placed His hand upon my forehead.

28Wherever I look, there, I find Him with me.

29The Lotus Feet of the Lord are the Support of my very breath of life. ||1||

30My God is all-powerful, unfathomable and utterly vast.

31The Lord and Master is close at hand - He dwells in each and every heart.

32Nanak seeks the Sanctuary and the Support of God, who has no end or limitation. ||2||3||36||

33Dayv-Gandhaaree, Fifth Mehla:

34Turn away, O my mind, turn away.

35Turn away from the faithless cynic.

36False is the love of the false one; break the ties, O my mind, and your ties shall be broken. Break your ties with the faithless cynic. ||1||Pause||

37One who enters a house filled with soot is blackened.

38Run far away from such people! One who meets the Guru escapes from the bondage of the three dispositions. ||1||

39I beg this blessing of You, O Merciful Lord, ocean of mercy - please, don't bring me face to face with the faithless cyincs.
