How could I forget Him from my mind, even for an instant? He is the Most Worthy; He is my very life!

My Lord and Master is the Giver of the fruits of the mind's desires. He knows all the useless vanities and pains of the soul.

Meditating on the Patron of lost souls, the Companion of all, your life shall not be lost in the gamble.

Nanak offers this prayer to God: Please shower me with Your Mercy, and carry me across the terrifying world-ocean. ||2||

DAKHANAA:

People bathe in the dust of the feet of the Saints, when the Lord becomes merciful.

I have obtained all things, O Nanak; the Lord is my Wealth and Property. ||1||

Chhant:

My Lord and Master's Home is beautiful. It is the resting place of His devotees, who live in hopes of attaining it.

Their minds and bodies are absorbed in meditation on the Name of God; they drink in the Lord's Ambrosial Nectar.

Section 05 - Siree Raag - Part 068

They drink in the Lord's Ambrosial Nectar, and become eternally stable. They know that the water of corruption is insipid and tasteless.

When my God, the Lord of the Universe became merciful, I came to look upon the Saadh Sangat as the treasure.

All pleasures and supreme ecstasy, O my Beloved, come to those who sew the Jewel of the Lord into their minds.

They do not forget, even for an instant, the Support of the breath of life. They live by constantly meditating on Him, O Nanak. ||3||

DAKHANAA:

O Lord, You meet and merge with those whom you have made Your Own.

You Yourself are entranced, O Nanak, hearing Your Own Praises. ||1||

Chhant:

Administering the intoxicating drug of love, I have won over the Lord of the Universe; I have fascinated His Mind.

By the Grace of the Saints, I am held in the loving embrace of the Unfathomable Lord, and I am entranced.

Held in the Lord's loving embrace, I look beautiful, and all my pains have been dispelled. By the loving worship of His devotees, the Lord has come under their power.

All pleasures have come to dwell in the mind; the Lord of the Universe is pleased and appeased. Birth and death have been totally eliminated.

O my companions, sing the Songs of Joy. My desires have been fulfilled, and I shall never again be trapped or shaken by Maya.

Taking hold of my hand, O Nanak, my Beloved God will not let me be swallowed up by the world-ocean. ||4||

DAKHANAA:

The Master's Name is Priceless; no one knows its value.

Those who have good destiny recorded upon their foreheads, O Nanak, enjoy the Love of the Lord. ||1||

Chhant:

Those who chant are sanctified. All those who listen are blessed, and those who write save their ancestors.

Those who join the Saadh Sangat are imbued with the Lord's Love; they reflect and meditate on God.
