1Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla, Third House:

2One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

3Does anyone know, who is our friend in this world?

4He alone understands this, whom the Lord blesses with His Mercy. Immaculate and unstained is his way of life. ||1||Pause||

5Mother, father, spouse, children, relatives, lovers, friends and siblings meet, having been associated in previous lives; but none of them will be your companion and support in the end. ||1||

6Pearl necklaces, gold, rubies and diamonds please the mind, but they are only Maya.

7Possessing them, one passes his life in agony; he obtains no contentment from them. ||2||

8Elephants, chariots, horses as fast as the wind, wealth, land, and armies of four kinds

9- none of these will go with him; he must get up and depart, naked. ||3||

10The Lord's Saints are the beloved lovers of God; sing of the Lord, Har, Har, with them.

11O Nanak, in the Society of the Saints, you shall obtain peace in this world, and in the next world, your face shall be radiant and bright. ||4||1||

12Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla, Third House, Dho-Padhay:

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

14Give me a message from my Beloved - tell me, tell me!

15I am wonder-struck, hearing the many reports of Him; tell them to me, O my happy sister soul-brides. ||1||Pause||

16Some say that He is beyond the world - totally beyond it, while others say that He is totally within it.

17His color cannot be seen, and His pattern cannot be discerned. O happy soul-brides, tell me the truth! ||1||

18He is pervading everywhere, and He dwells in each and every heart; He is not stained - He is unstained.

19Says Nanak, listen, O people: He dwells upon the tongues of the Saints. ||2||1||2||

20Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

21I am calmed, calmed and soothed, hearing of God. ||1||Pause||

22I dedicate my soul, my breath of life, my mind, body and everything to Him: I behold God near, very near. ||1||

23Beholding God, the inestimable, infinite and Great Giver, I cherish Him in my mind. ||2||

24Whatever I wish for, I receive; my hopes and desires are fulfilled, meditating on God. ||3||

25By Guru's Grace, God dwells in Nanak's mind; he never suffers or grieves, having realized God. ||4||2||3||

26Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

27I seek my Friend the Lord.

28In each and every home, sing the sublime songs of rejoicing; He abides in each and every heart. ||1||Pause||

29In good times, worship and adore Him; in bad times, worship and adore Him; do not ever forget Him.

30Chanting the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the light of millions of suns shines forth, and the darkness of doubt is dispelled. ||1||

31In all the spaces and interspaces, everywhere, whatever we see is Yours.

32One who finds the Society of the Saints, O Nanak, is not consigned to reincarnation again. ||2||3||4||
