They contemplate the True Lord, and are absorbed in the True Lord. ||1||Pause||

Those who do not serve the Lord are far away from the Lord.

They wander in foreign lands, with dust thrown on their heads.

The Lord Himself enjoins His humble servants to serve Him.

They live in peace forever, and have no greed at all. ||2||

Section 29 - Raag Basant - Part 006

When the Lord bestows His Glance of Grace, egotism is eradicated.

Then, the mortal is honored in the Court of the True Lord.

He sees the Dear Lord always close at hand, ever-present.

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, he sees the Lord pervading and permeating all. ||3||

The Lord cherishes all beings and creatures.

By Guru's Grace, contemplate Him forever.

You shall go to your true home in the Lord's Court with honor.

O Nanak, through the Naam, the Name of the Lord, you shall be blessed with glorious greatness. ||4||3||

Basant, Third Mehl:

One who worships the Lord within his mind,

sees the One and Only Lord, and no other.

People in duality suffer terrible pain.

The True Guru has shown me the One Lord. ||1||

My God is in bloom, forever in spring.

This mind blossoms forth, singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe. ||1||Pause||

So consult the Guru, and reflect upon His wisdom;

then, you shall be in love with the True Lord God.

Abandon your self-conceit, and be His loving servant.

Then, the Life of the World shall come to dwell in your mind. ||2||

Worship Him with devotion, and see Him always ever-present, close at hand.

My God is forever permeating and pervading all.

Only a rare few know the mystery of this devotional worship.

My God is the Enlightener of all souls. ||3||

The True Guru Himself unites us in His Union.

He Himself links our consciousness to the Lord, the Life of the World.

Thus, our minds and bodies are rejuvenated with intuitive ease.

O Nanak, through the Naam, the Name of the Lord, we remain attuned to the String of His Love. ||4||4||

Basant, Third Mehl:

The Lord is the Lover of His devotees; He dwells within their minds,

by Guru's Grace, with intuitive ease.

Through devotional worship, self-conceit is eradicated from within,

and then, one meets the True Lord. ||1||

His devotees are forever beauteous at the Door of the Lord God.

Loving the Guru, they have love and affection for the True Lord. ||1||Pause||

That humble being who worships the Lord with devotion becomes immaculate and pure.

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, egotism is eradicated from within.

The Dear Lord Himself comes to dwell within the mind,

and the mortal remains immersed in peace, tranquility and intuitive ease. ||2||
