The self-willed manmukhs are filled with hunger and thirst; their minds run around in the ten directions, hoping for great wealth.
Without the Name of the Lord, their life is cursed; the manmukhs are stuck in manure.
They come and go, and are consigned to wander through uncounted incarnations, eating stinking rot. ||3||
Begging, imploring, I seek Your Sanctuary; Lord, shower me with Your Mercy, and save me, God.
Lead me to join the Society of the Saints, and bless me with the honor and glory of the Lord's Name.
I have obtained the wealth of the Name of the Lord, Har, Har; servant Nanak chants the Lord's Name, through the Guru's Teachings. ||4||4||6||
Maaroo, Fourth Mehl, Fifth House:
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:
Devotional worship to the Lord, Har, Har, is an overflowing treasure.
The Gurmukh is emancipated by the Lord.
One who is blessed by the Mercy of my Lord and Master sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||
O Lord, Har, Har, take pity on me,
that within my heart, I may dwell upon You, Lord, forever and ever.
Chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, O my soul; chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, you shall be emancipated. ||1||Pause||
Section 25 - Raag Maaroo - Part 010
The Ambrosial Name of the Lord is the ocean of peace.
The beggar begs for it; O Lord, please bless him, in Your kindness.
True, True is the Lord; the Lord is forever True; the True Lord is pleasing to my mind. ||2||
The nine holes pour out filth.
Chanting the Lord's Name, they are all purified and sanctified.
When my Lord and Master is totally pleased, He leads the mortal to meditate in remembrance on the Lord, and then his filth is taken away. ||3||
Attachment to Maya is terribly treacherous.
How can one cross over the difficult world-ocean?
The True Lord bestows the boat of the True Guru; meditating on the Lord, Har, Har, one is carried across. ||4||
You are everywhere; all are Yours.
Whatever You do, God, that alone comes to pass.
Poor servant Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord; as it pleases the Lord, He bestows His approval. ||5||1||7||
Maaroo, Fourth Mehl:
Chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, O my mind.
The Lord shall eradicate all your sins.
Treasure the Lord's wealth, and gather in the Lord's wealth; when you depart in the end, the Lord shall go along with you as your only friend and companion. ||1||
He alone meditates on the Lord, unto whom He grants His Grace.
He continually chants the Lord's Chant; meditating on the Lord, one finds peace.
By Guru's Grace, the sublime essence of the Lord is obtained. Meditating on the Lord, Har, Har, one is carried across. ||1||Pause||
The fearless, formless Lord - the Name is Truth.
