1When I dwell upon Him in my soul, all my sorrows depart.

2Through this meditation the sickness of anxiety and the disease of ego are cured. God thus sustains us.||2||

3Like a child, I ask for everything (from God).

4God is Bountifull; God never comes up empty, that is Gods way.

5Again and again, I fall at Gods Feet. God is Merciful to the meek, the Sustainer of the World. ||3||

6I am a sacrifice to the Perfect True Guru,

7who has shattered all my bonds (to the world, breaking my attachment).

8With the Naam, the Name of the Lord, in my heart, I have been purified. O Nanak, His Love has imbued me with nectar. ||4||8||15||

9Maajh, Fifth Mehla:

10O my Love, Sustainer of the World, Merciful, Loving Lord,

11Profoundly Deep, Infinite Lord of the Universe,

12Highest of the High, Unfathomable, Infinite Lord and Master: continually remembering You in deep meditation, I live. ||1||

13O Destroyer of pain, Priceless Treasure,

14Fearless, free of hate, Unfathomable, Immeasurable,

15of Undying Form, Unborn, Self-illumined: remembering You in meditation, my mind is filled with a deep and profound peace. ||2||

16The Joyous Lord, the Sustainer of the World, is my constant Companion.

17He cherishes the high and the low.

18The Nectar of the Name satisfies my mind. As Gurmukh, I drink in the Ambrosial Nectar. ||3||

19In suffering and in comfort, I meditate on You, O Beloved.

20I have obtained this sublime understanding from the Guru.

21You are Nanak's Support, O my Lord and Master; through Your Love, I swim across to the other side. ||4||9||16||

22Maajh, Fifth Mehla:

23Blessed is that time when I meet the True Guru.

24Gazing upon the Fruitful Vision of His Darshan, I have been saved.

25Blessed are the hours, the minutes and the seconds-blessed is that Union with Him. ||1||

26Making the effort, my mind has become pure.

27Walking on the Lord's Path, my doubts have all been cast out.

28The True Guru has inspired me to hear the Treasure of the Naam; all my illness has been dispelled. ||2||

29The Word of Your Bani is inside and outside as well.

30You Yourself chant it, and You Yourself speak it.

31The Guru has said that He is One-All is the One. There shall never be any other. ||3||

32I drink in the Lord's Ambrosial Essence from the Guru;

33the Lord's Name has become my clothing and food.

34The Name is my delight, the Name is my play and entertainment. O Nanak, I have made the Name my enjoyment. ||4||10||17||

35Maajh, Fifth Mehla:

36I beg of all the Saints: please, give me the merchandise.

37I offer my prayers-I have forsaken my pride.

38I am a sacrifice, hundreds of thousands of times a sacrifice, and I pray: please, give me the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||1||

39You are the Giver, You are the Architect of Destiny.

40You are All-powerful, the Giver of Eternal Peace.

41You bless everyone. Please bring my life to fulfillment. ||2||

42The body-temple is sanctified by the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan,

43and thus, the impregnable fort of the soul is conquered.

44You are the Giver, You are the Architect of Destiny. There is no other warrior as great as You. ||3||
