Faults and demerits vanish, and virtues take their place; peace comes to dwell in the mind. ||2||

Pauree:

He Himself is all-pervading; He Himself is absorbed in the profound state of Samaadhi.

He Himself instructs; the Gurmukh is satisfied and fulfilled.

Some, He causes to wander in the wilderness, while others are committed to His devotional worship.

He alone understands, whom the Lord causes to understand; He Himself attaches mortals to His Name.

O Nanak, meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, true greatness is obtained. ||21||1||

Vaar Of Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

Shalok, Fifth Mehl:

As I have heard of the True Guru, so I have seen Him.

He re-unites the separated ones with God; He is the Mediator at the Court of the Lord.

He implants the Mantra of the Lord's Name, and eradicates the illness of egotism.

O Nanak, he alone meets the True Guru, who has such union pre-ordained. ||1||

Fifth Mehl:

If the One Lord is my Friend, then all are my friends. If the One Lord is my enemy, then all fight with me.

The Perfect Guru has shown me that, without the Name, everything is useless.

The faithless cynics and the evil people wander in reincarnation; they are attached to other tastes.

Servant Nanak has realized the Lord God, by the Grace of the Guru, the True Guru. ||2||

Pauree:

The Creator Lord created the Creation.

He Himself is the perfect Banker; He Himself earns His profit.

He Himself made the expansive Universe; He Himself is imbued with joy.

The value of God's almighty creative power cannot be estimated.

He is inaccessible, unfathomable, endless, the farthest of the far.

He Himself is the greatest Emperor; He Himself is His own Prime Minister.

No one knows His worth, or the greatness of His resting place.

He Himself is our True Lord and Master. He reveals Himself to the Gurmukh. ||1||

Shalok, Fifth Mehl:

Listen, O my beloved friend: please show me the True Guru.

I dedicate my mind to Him; I keep Him continually enshrined within my heart.

Without the One and Only True Guru, life in this world is cursed.

O servant Nanak, they alone meet the True Guru, with whom He constantly abides. ||1||

Fifth Mehl:

Deep within me is the longing to meet You; how can I find You, God?

I will search for someone, some friend, who will unite me with my Beloved.

The Perfect Guru has united me with Him; wherever I look, there He is.

Servant Nanak serves that God; there is no other as great as He is. ||2||

Pauree:

He is the Great Giver, the Generous Lord; with what mouth can I praise Him?

In His Mercy, He protects, preserves and sustains us.
