1Prays Nanak, God has granted His Grace, and I have found the Perfect True Guru. ||2||

2Meet with the holy, humble servants of God; meeting with the Lord, listen to the Kirtan of His Praises.

3God is the Merciful Master, the Lord of wealth; there is no end to His Virtues.

4The Merciful Lord is the Dispeller of pain, the Giver of Sanctuary, the Eradicator of all evil.

5Emotional attachment, sorrow, corruption and pain - chanting the Naam, the Name of the Lord, one is saved from these.

6All beings are Yours, O my God; bless me with Your Mercy, that I may become the dust under the feet of all men.

7Prays Nanak, O God, be kind to me, that I may chant Your Name, and live. ||3||

8God saves His humble devotees, attaching them to His feet.

9Twenty-four hours a day, they meditate in remembrance on their God; they meditae on the One Name.

10Meditating on that God, they cross over the terrifying world-ocean, and their comings and goings cease.

11They enjoy eternal peace and pleasure, singing the Kirtan of God's Praises; His Will seems so sweet to them.

12All my desires are fulfilled, meeting with the Perfect True Guru.

13Prays Nanak, God has blended me with Himself; I shall never suffer pain or sorrow again. ||4||3||

14Raamkalee, Fifth Mehla, Chhant.

15Shalok:

16In the Sanctuary of His lotus feet, I sing His Glorious Praises in ecstasy and bliss.

17O Nanak, worship God in adoration, the Eradicator of misfortune. ||1||

18Chhant:

19God is the Eradicator of misfortune; there is none other than Him.

20Forever and ever, remember the Lord in meditation; He is permeating the water, the land and the sky.

21He is permeating and pervading the water, the land and the sky; do not forget Him from your mind, even for an instant.

22Blessed was that day, when I grasped the Guru's feet; all virtues rest in the Lord of the Universe.

23So serve Him day and night, O servant; whatever pleases Him, happens.

24Nanak is a sacrifice to the Giver of peace; his mind and body are enlightened. ||1||

25Shalok:

26Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, the mind and body find peace; the thought of duality is dispelled.

27Nanak takes the support of the Lord of the World, the Lord of the Universe, the Destroyer of troubles. ||1||

28Chhant:

29The Merciful Lord has eradicated my fears and troubles.

30In ecstasy, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord; God is the Cherisher, the Master of the meek.

31The Cherishing Lord is imperishable, the One and only Primal Lord; I am imbued with His Love.

32When I placed my hands and forehead upon His Feet, He blended me with Himself; I became awake and aware forever, night and day.

33My soul, body, household and home belong to Him, along with my body, youth, wealth and property.

34Forever and ever, Nanak is a sacrifice to Him, who cherishes and nurtures all beings. ||2||

35Shalok:

36My tongue chants the Name of the Lord, and chants the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

37Nanak has grasped the sheltering support of the One Transcendent Lord, who shall save him in the end. ||1||

38Chhant:

39He is God, our Lord and Master, our Saving Grace. Grab hold of the hem of His robe.

40Vibrate, and meditate on the Merciful Divine Lord in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; renounce your intellectual mind.
