1You have saved so many devotees, so many humble servants; so many silent sages contemplate You.

2The support of the blind, the wealth of the poor; Nanak has found God, of endless virtues. ||2||2||127||

3Raag Bilaaval, Fifth Mehla, Thirteenth House, Partaal:

4One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

5O Enticing Lord, I cannot sleep; I sigh. I am adorned with necklaces, gowns, ornaments and make-up.

6I am sad, sad and depressed.

7When will You come home? ||1||Pause||

8I seek the Sanctuary of the happy soul-brides; I place my head upon their feet.

9Unite me with my Beloved.

10When will He come to my home? ||1||

11Listen, my companions: tell me how to meet Him. Eradicate all egotism, and then you shall find your Beloved Lord within the home of your heart.

12Then, in delight, you shall sing the songs of joy and praise.

13Meditate on the Lord, the embodiment of bliss.

14O Nanak, I came to the Lord's Door,

15and then, I found my Beloved. ||2||

16The Enticing Lord has revealed His form to me,

17and now, sleep seems sweet to me.

18My thirst is totally quenched,

19and now, I am absorbed in celestial bliss.

20How sweet is the story of my Husband Lord.

21I have found my Beloved, Enticing Lord. ||Second Pause||1||128||

22Bilaaval, Fifth Mehla:

23My ego is gone; I have obtained the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan.

24I am absorbed in my Lord and Master, the help and support of the Saints.

25Now, I hold tight to His Feet. ||1||Pause||

26My mind longs for Him, and does not love any other. I am totally absorbed, in love with His Lotus Feet, like the bumble bee attached to the honey of the lotus flower.

27I do not desire any other taste; I seek only the One Lord. ||1||

28I have broken away from the others, and I have been released from the Messenger of Death.

29O mind, drink in the subtle essence of the Lord; join the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, and turn away from the world.

30There is no other, none other than the Lord.

31O Nanak, love the Feet, the Feet of the Lord. ||2||2||129||

32Raag Bilaaval, Ninth Mehla, Dho-Padhay:

33One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

34The Name of the Lord is the Dispeller of sorrow - realize this.

35Remembering Him in meditation, even Ajaamal the robber and Ganikaa the prostitute were liberated; let your soul know this. ||1||Pause||

36The elephant's fear was taken away in an instant, as soon as he chanted the Lord's Name.

37Listening to Naarad's teachings, the child Dhroo was absorbed in deep meditation. ||1||

38He obtained the immovable, eternal state of fearlessness, and all the world was amazed.

39Says Nanak, the Lord is the Saving Grace and the Protector of His devotees; believe it - He is close to you. ||2||1||

40Bilaaval, Ninth Mehla:

41Without the Name of the Lord, you shall only find pain.

42Without devotional worship, doubt is not dispelled; the Guru has revealed this secret. ||1||Pause||

43Of what use are sacred shrines of pilgrimage, if one does not enter the Sanctuary of the Lord?
