blessed is that day, and that opportunity, when I gazed upon the Blessed Vision of the Guru's Darshan.

The mind's desires are fulfilled, when the inaccessible, unfathomable Lord is obtained.

Egotism and emotional attachment are eradicated, and one leans only on the Support of the True Name.

O servant Nanak, one who is committed to the Lord's service - the whole world is saved along with him. ||2||

Pauree:

How rare are those who are blessed to praise the Lord, in devotional worship.

Those who are blessed with the Lord's treasures are not called to give their account again.

Those who are imbued with His Love are absorbed in ecstasy.

They take the Support of the One Name; the One Name is their only food.

For their sake, the world eats and enjoys.

Their Beloved Lord belongs to them alone.

The Guru comes and meets them; they alone know God.

I am a sacrifice to those who are pleasing to their Lord and Master. ||4||

Shalok, Fifth Mehl:

My friendship is with the One Lord alone; I am in love with the One Lord alone.

The Lord is my only friend; my companionship is with the One Lord alone.

My conversation is with the One Lord alone; He never frowns, or turns His face away.

He alone knows the state of my soul; He never ignores my love.

He is my only counselor, all-powerful to destroy and create.

The Lord is my only Giver. He places His hand upon the heads of the generous in the world.

I take the Support of the One Lord alone; He is all-powerful, over the heads of all.

The Saint, the True Guru, has united me with the Lord. He placed His hand on my forehead.

Section 22 - Raag Raamkalee - Part 084

The Guru led me to meet the greatest Lord and Master; He saved the whole world.

The desires of the mind are fulfilled; I have attained my pre-destined Union with God.

Nanak has obtained the True Name; He enjoys the enjoyments forever. ||1||

Fifth Mehl:

Friendship with the self-willed manmukhs is an alliance with Maya.

As we watch, they run away; they never stand firm.

As long as they get food and clothing, they stick around.

But on that day when they receive nothing, then they start to curse.

The self-willed manmukhs are ignorant and blind; they do not know the secrets of the soul.

The false bond does not last; it is like stones joined with mud.

The blind do not understand themselves; they are engrossed in false worldly entanglements.

Entangled in false attachments, they pass their lives in egotism and self-conceit.

But that being, whom the Lord has blessed with His Mercy from the very beginning, does perfect deeds, and accumulates good karma.

O servant Nanak, those humble beings alone are saved, who enter the Sanctuary of the True Guru. ||2||
