1The Lord's Ambrosial Nectar is an overflowing treasure; everything is in His Home. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

2My Father is absolutely all-powerful. God is the Doer, the Cause of causes.

3Remembering Him in meditation, pain does not touch me; thus I cross over the terrifying world-ocean.

4In the beginning, and throughout the ages, He is the Protector of His devotees. Praising Him continually, I live.

5O Nanak, the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the sweetest and most sublime essence. Night and day, I drink it in with my mind and body. ||1||

6The Lord unites me with Himself; how could I feel any separation? I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

7One who has Your Support lives forever and ever. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

8I take my support from You alone, O True Creator Lord.

9No one lacks this Support; such is my God.

10Meeting with the humble Saints, I sing the songs of joy; day and night, I place my hopes in You.

11I have obtained the Blessed Vision, the Darshan of the Perfect Guru. Nanak is forever a sacrifice. ||2||

12Contemplating, dwelling upon the Lord's true home, I receive honor, greatness and truth. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

13Meeting the Merciful True Guru, I sing the Praises of the Imperishable Lord. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

14Sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, continually, continuously; He is the Beloved Master of the breath of life.

15Good times have come; the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts, has met me, and hugged me close in His Embrace.

16The musical instruments of truth and contentment vibrate, and the unstruck melody of the sound current resounds.

17Hearing this, all my fears have been dispelled; O Nanak, God is the Primal Being, the Creator Lord. ||3||

18The essence of spiritual wisdom has welled up; in this world, and the next, the One Lord is pervading. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

19When God meets the God within the self, no one can separate them. I am a sacrifice to the Lord.

20I gaze upon the Wondrous Lord, and listen to the Wondrous Lord; the Wondrous Lord has come into my vision.

21The Perfect Lord and Master is pervading the water, the land and the sky, in each and every heart.

22I have merged again into the One from whom I originated. The value of this cannot be described.

23Nanak meditates on Him. ||4||2||

24Raag Soohee, Chhant, Fifth Mehla, Second House:

25One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

26I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

27I am awake, night and day, in the Lord's Love.

28Awake to the Lord's Love, my sins have left me. I meet with the Beloved Saints.

29Attached to the Guru's Feet, my doubts are dispelled, and all my affairs are resolved.

30Listening to the Word of the Guru's Bani with my ears, I know celestial peace. By great good fortune, I meditate on the Lord's Name.

31Prays Nanak, I have entered my Lord and Master's Sanctuary. I dedicate my body and soul to God. ||1||

32The unstruck melody of the Shabad, the Word of God is so very beautiful.

33True joy comes from singing the Lord's Praises.

34Singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, Har, Har, pain is dispelled, and my mind is filled with tremendous joy.

35My mind and body have become immaculate and pure, gazing upon the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan; I chant the Name of God.
