Those who are imbued with Truth, are forever in the bloom of spring.

Their minds and bodies are rejuvenated, uttering the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe.

Without the Lord's Name, the world is dry and parched.

It burns in the fire of desire, over and over again. ||3||

One who does only that which is pleasing to the Dear Lord

- his body is forever at peace, and his consciousness is attached to the Lord's Will.

He serves His God with intuitive ease.

O Nanak, the Naam, the Name of the Lord, comes to abide in his mind. ||4||5||

Basant, Third Mehl:

Attachment to Maya is burnt away by the Word of the Shabad.

The mind and body are rejuvenated by the Love of the True Guru.

The tree bears fruit at the Lord's Door,

in love with the True Bani of the Guru's Word, and the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||1||

This mind is rejuvenated, with intuitive ease;

loving the True Guru, it bears the fruit of truth. ||1||Pause||

He Himself is near, and He Himself is far away.

Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, He is seen to be ever-present, close at hand.

The plants have blossomed forth, giving a dense shade.

The Gurmukh blossoms forth, with intuitive ease. ||2||

Night and day, he sings the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, day and night.

The True Guru drives out sin and doubt from within.

Section 29 - Raag Basant - Part 007

Gazing upon the wonder of God's Creation, I am wonder-struck and amazed.

The Gurmukh obtains the Naam, the Name of the Lord, by His Grace. ||3||

The Creator Himself enjoys all delights.

Whatever He does, surely comes to pass.

He is the Great Giver; He has no greed at all.

O Nanak, living the Word of the Shabad, the mortal meets with God. ||4||6||

Basant, Third Mehl:

By perfect destiny, one acts in truth.

Remembering the One Lord, one does not have to enter the cycle of reincarnation.

Fruitful is the coming into the world, and the life of one

who remains intuitively absorbed in the True Name. ||1||

The Gurmukh acts, lovingly attuned to the Lord.

Be dedicated to the Lord's Name, and eradicate self-conceit from within. ||1||Pause||

True is the speech of that humble being;

through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, it is spread throughout the world.

Throughout the four ages, his fame and glory spread.

Imbued with the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the Lord's humble servant is recognized and renowned. ||2||

Some remain lovingly attuned to the True Word of the Shabad.

True are those humble beings who love the True Lord.

They meditate on the True Lord, and behold Him near at hand, ever-present.

They are the dust of the lotus feet of the humble Saints. ||3||
