Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Nat Naaraayan

Hundreds of thousands and millions of meditations, austerities and worships are not equal to remembering the Lord in meditation.

With his palms pressed together, Nanak begs for this blessing, that he may become the slave of the slaves of Your slaves. ||2||6||7||

Nat, Fifth Mehl:

The treasure of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is everything for me.

Granting His Grace, He has led me to join the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; the True Guru has granted this gift. ||1||Pause||

Sing the Kirtan, the Praises of the Lord, the Giver of peace, the Destroyer of pain; He shall bless you with perfect spiritual wisdom.

Sexual desire, anger and greed shall be shattered and destroyed, and your foolish ego will be dispelled. ||1||

What Glorious Virtues of Yours should I chant? O God, You are the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts.

I seek the Sanctuary of Your Lotus Feet, O Lord, ocean of peace; Nanak is forever a sacrifice to You. ||2||7||8||

Section 23 - Raag Nat Naaraayan - Part 006

Nat, Fifth Mehl:

I am a sacrifice, a sacrifice to the Guru, the Lord of the World. ||1||Pause||

I am unworthy; You are the Perfect Giver. You are the Merciful Master of the meek. ||1||

While standing up and sitting down, while sleeping and awake, You are my soul, my breath of life, my wealth and property. ||2||

Within my mind there is such a great thirst for the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. Nanak is enraptured with Your Glance of Grace. ||3||8||9||

Nat Partaal, Fifth Mehl:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

Is there any friend or companion of mine,

who will constantly share the Lord's Name with me?

Will he rid me of my pains and evil tendencies?

I would surrender my mind, body, consciousness and everything. ||1||Pause||

How rare is that one whom the Lord makes His own,

and whose mind is sewn into the Lord's Lotus Feet.

Granting His Grace, the Lord blesses him with His Praise. ||1||

Vibrating, meditating on the Lord, he is victorious in this precious human life,

and millions of sinners are sanctified.

Slave Nanak is a sacrifice, a sacrifice to Him. ||2||1||10||19||

Nat Ashtapadees, Fourth Mehl:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

O Lord, Your Name is the support of my mind and body.

I cannot survive for a moment, even for an instant, without serving You. Following the Guru's Teachings, I dwell upon the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

Within my mind, I meditate on the Lord, Har, Har, Har, Har, Har. The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is so dear to me.

When God, my Lord and Master, became merciful to me the meek one, I was exalted by the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||1||

Almighty Lord, Slayer of demons, Life of the World, my Lord and Master, inaccessible and infinite:
