1You are, You are, and You shall ever be, O inaccessible, unfathomable, lofty and infinite Lord.

2Those who serve You, are not touched by fear or suffering.

3By Guru's Grace, O Nanak, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||2||

4Whatever is seen, is Your form, O treasure of virtue, O Lord of the Universe, O Lord of incomparable beauty.

5Remembering, remembering, remembering the Lord in meditation, His humble servant becomes like Him.

6O Nanak, by His Grace, we obtain Him. ||3||

7I am a sacrifice to those who meditate on the Lord.

8Associating with them, the whole world is saved.

9Says Nanak, God fulfills our hopes and aspirations.

10I long for the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||4||2||

11Tilang, Fifth Mehla, Third House:

12Merciful, the Lord Master is Merciful.

13My Lord Master is Merciful.

14He gives His gifts to all beings. ||Pause||

15Why do you waver, O mortal being? The Creator Lord Himself shall protect you.

16He who created you, will also give you nourishment. ||1||

17The One who created the world, takes care of it.

18In each and every heart and mind, the Lord is the True Cherisher. ||2||

19His creative potency and His value cannot be known; He is the Great and carefree Lord.

20O human being, meditate on the Lord, as long as there is breath in your body. ||3||

21O God, You are all-powerful, inexpressible and imperceptible; my soul and body are Your capital.

22By Your Mercy, may I find peace; this is Nanak's lasting prayer. ||4||3||

23Tilang, Fifth Mehla, Third House:

24O Creator, through Your creative potency, I am in love with You.

25You alone are my spiritual and temporal Lord; and yet, You are detached from all Your creation. ||Pause||

26In an instant, You establish and disestablish. Wondrous is Your form!

27Who can know Your play? You are the Light in the darkness. ||1||

28You are the Master of Your creation, the Lord of all the world, O Merciful Lord God.

29One who worships You day and night - why should he have to go to hell? ||2||

30Azraa-eel, the Messenger of Death, is the friend of the human being who has Your support, Lord.

31His sins are all forgiven; Your humble servant gazes upon Your Vision. ||3||

32All worldly considerations are for the present only. True peace comes only from Your Name.

33Meeting the Guru, Nanak understands; He sings only Your Praises forever, O Lord. ||4||4||

34Tilang, Fifth Mehla:

35Think of the Lord in your mind, O wise one.

36Enshrine love for the True Lord in your mind and body; He is the Liberator from bondage. ||1||Pause||

37The value of seeing the Vision of the Lord Master cannot be estimated.

38You are the Pure Cherisher; You Yourself are the great and immeasurable Lord and Master. ||1||

39Give me Your help, O brave and generous Lord; You are the One, You are the Only Lord.

40O Creator Lord, by Your creative potency, You created the world; Nanak holds tight to Your support. ||2||5||

41Tilang, First Mehla, Second House:

42One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

43The One who created the world watches over it; what more can we say, O Siblings of Destiny?
