1but you do not experience the state of victory of the Lord of the Universe. ||3||

2So enter the Sanctuary of the All-powerful, Unfathomable Lord and Master.

3O God, O Searcher of hearts, please, save Nanak! ||4||27||33||

4Soohee, Fifth Mehla:

5Cross over the terrifying world-ocean in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.

6Remember in meditation the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, the source of jewels. ||1||

7Remembering, remembering the Lord in meditation, I live.

8All pain, disease and suffering is dispelled, meeting the Perfect Guru; sin has been eradicated. ||1||Pause||

9The immortal status is obtained through the Name of the Lord;

10the mind and body become spotless and pure, which is the true purpose of life. ||2||

11Twenty-four hours a day, meditate on the Supreme Lord God.

12By pre-ordained destiny, the Name is obtained. ||3||

13I have entered His Sanctuary, and I meditate on the Lord, Merciful to the meek.

14Nanak longs for the dust of the Saints. ||4||28||34||

15Soohee, Fifth Mehla:

16The beautiful one does not know the work of his own home.

17The fool is engrossed in false attachments. ||1||

18As You attach us, so we are attached.

19When You bless us with Your Name, we chant it. ||1||Pause||

20The Lord's slaves are imbued with the Love of the Lord.

21They are intoxicated with the Lord, night and day. ||2||

22Reaching out to grasp hold of our arms, God lifts us up.

23Separated for countless incarnations, we are united with Him again. ||3||

24Save me, O God, O my Lord and Master - shower me with Your Mercy.

25Slave Nanak seeks Sanctuary at Your Door, O Lord. ||4||29||35||

26Soohee, Fifth Mehla:

27By the Grace of the Saints, I have found my eternal home.

28I have found total peace, and I shall not waver again. ||1||

29I meditate on the Guru, and the Lord's Feet, within my mind.

30In this way, the Creator Lord has made me steady and stable. ||1||Pause||

31I sing the Glorious Praises of the unchanging, eternal Lord God,

32and the noose of death is snapped. ||2||

33Showering His Mercy, he has attached me to the hem of His robe.

34In constant bliss, Nanak sings His Glorious Praises. ||3||30||36||

35Soohee, Fifth Mehla:

36The Words, the Teachings of the Holy Saints, are Ambrosial Nectar.

37Whoever meditates on the Lord's Name is emancipated; he chants the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, with his tongue. ||1||Pause||

38The pains and sufferings of the Dark Age of Kali Yuga are eradicated,

39when the One Name abides within the mind. ||1||

40I apply the dust of the feet of the Holy to my face and forehead.

41Nanak has been saved, in the Sanctuary of the Guru, the Lord. ||2||31||37||

42Soohee, Fifth Mehla: Third House:

43I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, the Merciful Lord.

44Please, bless me with the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, O Perfect, Compassionate Lord. ||Pause||

45Please, grant Your Grace, and cherish me.

46My soul and body are all Your property. ||1||

47Only meditation on the Ambrosial Naam, the Name of the Lord, will go along with you.

48Nanak begs for the dust of the Saints. ||2||32||38||

49Soohee, Fifth Mehla:

50Without Him, there is no other at all.

51The True Lord Himself is our anchor. ||1||

52The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is our only support.

53The Creator, the Cause of causes, is All-powerful and Infinite. ||1||Pause||

54He has eradicated all illness, and healed me.

55O Nanak, He Himself has become my Savior. ||2||33||39||
