1Maajh, Fourth Mehla:

2Read of the Lord's Glories and reflect upon the Lord's Glories.

3Listen continually to the Sermon of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

4Joining the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, and singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, you shall cross over the treacherous and terrifying world-ocean. ||1||

5Come, friends, let us meet our Lord.

6Bring me a message from my Beloved.

7He alone is a friend, companion, beloved and brother of mine, who shows me the way to the Lord, the Lord of all. ||2||

8My illness is known only to the Lord and the Perfect Guru.

9I cannot continue living without chanting the Naam.

10So give me the medicine, the Mantra of the Perfect Guru. Through the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, I am saved. ||3||

11I am just a poor song-bird, in the Sanctuary of the True Guru,

12who has placed the Drop of Water, the Lord's Name, Har, Har, in my mouth.

13The Lord is the Treasure of Water; I am just a fish in that water. Without this Water, servant Nanak would die. ||4||3||

14Maajh, Fourth Mehla:

15O servants of the Lord, O Saints, O my Siblings of Destiny, let us join together!

16Show me the way to my Lord God-I am so hungry for Him!

17Please reward my faith, O Life of the World, O Great Giver. Obtaining the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan, my mind is fulfilled. ||1||

18Joining the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, I chant the Bani of the Lord's Word.

19The Sermon of the Lord, Har, Har, is pleasing to my mind.

20The Ambrosial Nectar of the Lord's Name, Har, Har, is so sweet to my mind. Meeting the True Guru, I drink in this Ambrosial Nectar. ||2||

21By great good fortune, the Lord's Congregation is found,

22while the unfortunate ones wander around in doubt, enduring painful beatings.

23Without good fortune, the Sat Sangat is not found; without this Sangat, people are stained with filth and pollution. ||3||

24Come and meet me, O Life of the World, my Beloved.

25Please bless me with Your Mercy, and enshrine Your Name, Har, Har, within my mind.

26Through the Guru's Teachings, the Sweet Name has become pleasing to my mind. Servant Nanak's mind is drenched and delighted with the Naam. ||4||4||

27Maajh, Fourth Mehla:

28Through the Guru, I have obtained the Lord's spiritual wisdom. I have obtained the Sublime Essence of the Lord.

29My mind is imbued with the Love of the Lord; I drink in the Sublime Essence of the Lord.

30With my mouth, I chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har; my mind is filled to overflowing with the Sublime Essence of the Lord. ||1||

31Come, O Saints, and lead me to my Lord's Embrace.

32Recite to me the Sermon of my Beloved.

33I dedicate my mind to those Saints of the Lord, who chant the Word of the Guru's Bani with their mouths. ||2||

34By great good fortune, the Lord has led me to meet His Saint.

35The Perfect Guru has placed the Sublime Essence of the Lord into my mouth.

36The unfortunate ones do not find the True Guru; the self-willed manmukhs continually endure reincarnation through the womb. ||3||

37God, the Merciful, has Himself bestowed His Mercy.

38He has totally removed the poisonous pollution of egotism.

39O Nanak, in the shops of the city of the human body, the Gurmukhs buy the merchandise of the Lord's Name. ||4||5||

40Maajh, Fourth Mehla:

41I meditate on the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, and the Name of the Lord.

42Joining the Sangat, the Holy Congregation, the Name comes to dwell in the mind.

43The Lord God is our Lord and Master, Inaccessible and Unfathomable. Meeting the True Guru, I enjoy the Sublime Essence of the Lord. ||1||
