1Hail, hail unto the Guru, the Guru, the Perfect True Guru, who fulfills Nanak's heart's desires. ||4||

2O Lord, let me meet the Guru, my best friend; meeting Him, I meditate on the Lord's Name.

3I seek the Lord's sermon from the Guru, the True Guru; joining with Him, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

4Each and every day, forever, I sing the Lord's Praises; my mind lives by hearing Your Name.

5O Nanak, that moment when I forget my Lord and Master - at that moment, my soul dies. ||5||

6Everyone longs to see the Lord, but he alone sees Him, whom the Lord causes to see Him.

7One upon whom my Beloved bestows His Glance of Grace, cherishes the Lord, Har, Har forever.

8He alone cherishes the Lord, Har, Har, forever and ever, who meets my Perfect True Guru.

9O Nanak, the Lord's humble servant and the Lord become One; meditating on the Lord, he blends with the Lord. ||6||1||3||

10Wadahans, Fifth Mehla, First House:

11One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

12His Darbaar, His Court, is the most lofty and exalted.

13It has no end or limitations.

14Millions, millions, tens of millions seek,

15but they cannot find even a tiny bit of His Mansion. ||1||

16What is that auspicious moment, when God is met? ||1||Pause||

17Tens of thousands of devotees worship Him in adoration.

18Tens of thousands of ascetics practice austere discipline.

19Tens of thousands of Yogis practice Yoga.

20Tens of thousands of pleasure seekers seek pleasure. ||2||

21He dwells in each and every heart, but only a few know this.

22Is there any friend who can rip apart the screen of separation?

23I can only make the effort, if the Lord is merciful to me.

24I sacrifice my body and soul to Him. ||3||

25After wandering around for so long, I have finally come to the Saints;

26all of my pains and doubts have been eradicated.

27God summoned me to the Mansion of His Presence, and blessed me with the Ambrosial Nectar of His Name.

28Says Nanak, my God is lofty and exalted. ||4||1||

29Wadahans, Fifth Mehla:

30Blessed is that time, when the Blessed Vision of His Darshan is given;

31I am a sacrifice to the feet of the True Guru. ||1||

32You are the Giver of souls, O my Beloved God.

33My soul lives by reflecting upon the Name of God. ||1||Pause||

34True is Your Mantra, Ambrosial is the Bani of Your Word.

35Cooling and soothing is Your Presence, all-knowing is Your gaze. ||2||

36True is Your Command; You sit upon the eternal throne.

37My eternal God does not come or go. ||3||

38You are the Merciful Master; I am Your humble servant.

39O Nanak, the Lord and Master is totally permeating and pervading everywhere. ||4||2||

40Wadahans, Fifth Mehla:

41You are infinite - only a few know this.

42By Guru's Grace, some come to understand You through the Word of the Shabad. ||1||

43Your servant offers this prayer, O Beloved:
