Author: Guru Arjan Dev Ji
Sorat’h, Fifth Mehl:
Mirtak kau paa-i-o tan saasaa
Bichhurat aan milaa-i-aa
Pasoo parayt mugadh bha-ay srotay
Harinaamaa mukh gaa-i-aa
Pooray gur kee daykh vadaa-ee
Taa kee keemat kehn na jaa-ee (rahaa-o)
Dookh sog kaa dhaa-i-o dayraa
Anad mangal bisraamaa
Man baanchhat fal milay achintaa
Pooran ho-ay kaamaa
Eehaa sukh aagai mukh oojal
Mit ga-ay aavan jaanay
Nirbhau bha-ay hirdai naam vasi-aa
Apunay satigur kai man bhaanay
Oothat baithat har gun gaavai
Dookh darad bhram bhaagaa
Kaho Naanak taa kay poor karmaa
Jaa kaa gur charnee man laagaa II 4 II 10 II 21 II
Into the dead body, He infuses the breath of life,
And the separated ones, He unites.
Even beasts, goblins and fools become attentive listeners,
When He sings the Name of the Lord.
Behold the Glorious Greatness of the Perfect Guru.
His Worth cannot be described.
He demolishes the abode of sorrow and distress.
Bliss, beatitude and lasting peace have now come.
The fruits of one’s heart’s desires are obtained, effortlessly,
And one’s works are brought to fulfillment.
One obtains peace in this world,
And in the next, one’s face shines radiantly;
One’s comings and goings are ended.
One becomes fearless, and the Naam abides in the heart,
Of the one who is pleasing to the Mind of the True Guru.
Standing up and sitting down,
Singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord,
Grief, distress and doubt are dispelled.
Says Nanak: One’s karmas are finished,
As one’s mind is fixed on the Lotus Feet of the Guru.
