古鲁·格兰特·萨希布 701 · Raag Jaithsree

1Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla, Fourth House, Dho-Padhay:

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

3Now, I have found peace, bowing before the Guru.

4I have abandoned cleverness, quieted my anxiety, and renounced my egotism. ||1||Pause||

5When I looked, I saw that everyone was enticed by emotional attachment; then, I hurried to the Guru's Sanctuary.

6In His Grace, the Guru engaged me in the Lord's service, and then, the Messenger of Death gave up pursuing me. ||1||

7I swam across the ocean of fire, when I met the Saints, through great good fortune.

8O servant Nanak, I have found total peace; my consciousness is attached to the Lord's feet. ||2||1||5||

9Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

10Within my mind, I cherish and meditate on the True Guru.

11He has implanted within me spiritual wisdom and the Mantra of the Lord's Name; Dear God has shown mercy to me. ||1||Pause||

12Death's noose and its mighty entanglements have vanished, along with the fear of death.

13I have come to the Sanctuary of the Merciful Lord, the Destroyer of pain; I am holding tight to the Support of His feet. ||1||

14The Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, has assumed the form of a boat, to cross over the terrifying world-ocean.

15I drink in the Ambrosial Nectar, and my doubts are shattered; says Nanak, I can bear the unbearable. ||2||2||6||

16Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

17One who has the Lord of the Universe as his help and support

18is blessed with all peace, poise and bliss; no afflictions cling to him. ||1||Pause||

19He appears to keep company with everyone, but he remains detached, and Maya does not cling to him.

20He is absorbed in love of the One Lord; he understands the essence of reality, and he is blessed with wisdom by the True Guru. ||1||

21Those whom the Lord and Master blesses with His kindness, compassion and mercy are the sublime and sanctified Saints.

22Associating with them, Nanak is saved; with love and exuberant joy, they sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||2||3||7||

23Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

24The Lord of the Universe is my existence, my breath of life, wealth and beauty.

25The ignorant are totally intoxicated with emotional attachment; in this darkness, the Lord is the only lamp. ||1||Pause||

26Fruitful is the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, O Beloved God; Your lotus feet are incomparably beautiful!

27So many times, I bow in reverence to Him, offering my mind as incense to Him. ||1||

28Exhausted, I have fallen at Your Door, O God; I am holding tight to Your Support.

29Please, lift Your humble servant Nanak up, out of the pit of fire of the world. ||2||4||8||

30Jaitsree, Fifth Mehla:

31If only someone would unite me with the Lord!

32I hold tight to His feet, and utter sweet words with my tongue; I make my breath of life an offering to Him. ||1||Pause||

33I make my mind and body into pure little gardens, and irrigate them with the sublime essence of the Lord.

34I am drenched with this sublime essence by His Grace, and the powerful hold of Maya's corruption has been broken. ||1||

35I have come to Your Sanctuary, O Destroyer of the suffering of the innocent; I keep my consciousness focused on You.
