The Simritees, Shaastras, the four Vedas and the six systems of philosophy shall vanish.

Prayer books, Pandits, religious scholars, songs, poems and poets shall also depart.

Those who are celibate, truthful and charitiable, and the Sannyaasee hermits are all subject to death.

The silent sages, the Yogis and the nudists, along with the Messengers of Death, shall pass away.

Whatever is seen shall perish; all will dissolve and disappear.

Only the Supreme Lord God, the Transcendent Lord, is permanent. His servant becomes permanent as well. ||18||

Shalok Dakhanay, Fifth Mehl:

Hundreds of times naked does not make the person naked; tens of thousands of hungers do not make him hungry;

millions of pains do not cause him pain. O Nanak, the Husband Lord blesses him with his Glance of Grace. ||1||

Fifth Mehl:

Even if one were to enjoy all pleasures, and be master of the entire earth,

O Nanak, all of that is just a disease. Without the Naam, he is dead. ||2||

Fifth Mehl:

Yearn for the One Lord, and make Him your friend.

O Nanak, He alone fulfills your hopes; you should feel embarrassed, visiting other places. ||3||

Pauree:

The One and only Lord is eternal, imperishable, inaccessible and incomprehensible.

The treasure of the Naam is eternal and imperishable. Meditating in remembrance on Him, the Lord is attained.

The Kirtan of His Praises is eternal and imperishable; the Gurmukh sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

Truth, righteousness, Dharma and intense meditation are eternal and imperishable. Day and night, worship the Lord in adoration.

Compassion, righteousness, Dharma and intense meditation are eternal and imperishable; they alone obtain these, who have such pre-ordained destiny.

The inscription inscribed upon one's forehead is eternal and imperishable; it cannot be avoided by avoidance.

The Congregation, the Company of the Holy, and the word of the humble, are eternal and imperishable. The Holy Guru is eternal and imperishable.

Those who have such pre-ordained destiny worship and adore the Lord, forever and ever. ||19||

Shalok, Dakhanay, Fifth Mehl:

One who himself has drowned - how can he carry anyone else across?

One who is imbued with the Love of the Husband Lord - O Nanak, he himself is saved, and he saves others as well. ||1||

Fifth Mehl:

Wherever someone speaks and hears the Name of my Beloved Lord,

that is where I go, O Nanak, to see Him, and blossom forth in bliss. ||2||

Fifth Mehl:

You are in love with your children and your wife; why do you keep calling them your own?

O Nanak, without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the human body has no foundation. ||3||
