1Please shower Your Mercy upon me, and permit me to ignore the great enticements of Maya, O Lord, Merciful to the meek.

2Give me Your Name - chanting it, I live; please bring the efforts of Your slave to fruition. ||1||

3All desires, power, pleasure, joy and lasting bliss, are found by chanting the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and singing the Kirtan of His Praises.

4That humble servant of the Lord, who has such karma pre-ordained by the Creator Lord, O Nanak - his efforts are brought to perfect fruition. ||2||20||51||

5Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehla:

6The Supreme Lord God takes care of His humble servant.

7The slanderers are not allowed to stay; they are pulled out by their roots, like useless weeds. ||1||Pause||

8Wherever I look, there I see my Lord and Master; no one can harm me.

9Whoever shows disrespect to the Lord's humble servant, is instantly reduced to ashes. ||1||

10The Creator Lord has become my protector; He has no end or limitation.

11O Nanak, God has protected and saved His slaves; He has driven out and destroyed the slanderers. ||2||21||52||

12Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehla, Ninth House, Partaal:

13One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

14O Lord, I seek the Sanctuary of Your feet; Lord of the Universe, Destroyer of pain, please bless Your slave with Your Name.

15Be Merciful, God, and bless me with Your Glance of Grace; take my arm and save me - pull me up out of this pit! ||Pause||

16He is blinded by sexual desire and anger, bound by Maya; his body and clothes are filled with countless sins.

17Without God, there is no other protector; help me to chant Your Name, Almighty Warrior, Sheltering Lord. ||1||

18Redeemer of sinners, Saving Grace of all beings and creatures, even those who recite the Vedas have not found Your limit.

19God is the ocean of virtue and peace, the source of jewels; Nanak sings the Praises of the Lover of His devotees. ||2||1||53||

20Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehla:

21Peace in this world, peace in the next world and peace forever, remembering Him in meditation. Chant forever the Name of the Lord of the Universe.

22The sins of past lives are erased, by joining the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; new life is infused into the dead. ||1||Pause||

23In power, youth and Maya, the Lord is forgotten; this is the greatest tragedy - so say the spiritual sages.

24Hope and desire to sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises - this is the treasure of the most fortunate devotees. ||1||

25O Lord of Sanctuary, all-powerful, imperceptible and unfathomable - Your Name is the Purifier of sinners.

26The Inner-knower, the Lord and Master of Nanak is totally pervading and permeating everywhere; He is my Lord and Master. ||2||2||54||

27Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehla, Twelfth House:

28One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

29I bow in reverence to the Lord, I bow in reverence. I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, my King. ||Pause||

30By great good fortune, one meets the Divine Guru.

31Millions of sins are erased by serving the Lord. ||1||
