1Raag Maalee Gauraa, Fourth Mehla:

2One Universal Creator God. Truth Is The Name. Creative Being Personified. No Fear. No Hatred. Image Of The Undying. Beyond Birth. Self-Existent. By Guru's Grace:

3Countless have tried, but none have found the Lord's limit.

4The Lord is inaccessible, unapproachable and unfathomable; I humbly bow to the Lord God, my King. ||1||Pause||

5Sexual desire, anger, greed and emotional attachment bring continual conflict and strife.

6Save me, save me, I am your humble creature, O Lord; I have come to Your Sanctuary, O my Lord God. ||1||

7You protect and preserve those who take to Your Sanctuary, God; You are called the Lover of Your devotees.

8Prahlaad, Your humble servant, was caught by Harnaakhash; but You saved Him and carried him across, Lord. ||2||

9Remember the Lord, O mind, and rise up to the Mansion of His Presence; the Sovereign Lord is the Destroyer of pain.

10Our Lord and Master takes away the fear of birth and death; following the Guru's Teachings, the Lord God is found. ||3||

11The Name of the Lord, our Lord and Master, is the Purifier of sinners; I sing of the Lord, the Destroyer of the fears of His devotees.

12One who wears the necklace of the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, in his heart, O servant Nanak, merges in the Naam. ||4||1||

13Maalee Gauraa, Fourth Mehla:

14O my mind, chant the Name of the Lord, the Giver of peace.

15One who joins the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, and enjoys the sublime taste of the Lord, as Gurmukh, comes to realize God. ||1||Pause||

16By great good fortune, one obtains the Blessed Vision of the Guru's Darshan; meeting with the Guru, the Lord God is known.

17The filth of evil-mindedness is totally washed away, bathing in the Lord's ambrosial pool of nectar. ||1||

18Blessed, blessed are the Holy, who have found their Lord God; I ask them to tell me the stories of the Lord.

19I fall at their feet, and always pray to them, to mercifully unite me with my Lord, the Architect of Destiny. ||2||

20Through the destiny written on my forehead, I have found the Holy Guru; my mind and body are imbued with the Guru's Word.

21The Lord God has come to meet me; I have found peace, and I am rid of all the sins. ||3||

22Those who follow the Guru's Teachings find the Lord, the source of nectar; their words are sublime and exalted.

23By great good fortune, one is blessed with the dust of their feet; servant Nanak falls at their feet. ||4||2||
