Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Maajh

In peace and pleasure, they sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe. O Nanak, God is permeating everywhere. ||4||36||43||

Maajh, Fifth Mehl:

True is that temple, within which one meditates on the True Lord.

Blessed is that heart, within which the Lord's Glorious Praises are sung.

Beautiful is that land, where the Lord's humble servants dwell. I am a sacrifice to the True Name. ||1||

The extent of the True Lord's Greatness cannot be known.

His Creative Power and His Bounties cannot be described.

Your humble servants live by meditating, meditating on You. Their minds treasure the True Word of the Shabad. ||2||

The Praises of the True One are obtained by great good fortune.

By Guru's Grace, the Glorious Praises of the Lord are sung.

Those who are imbued with Your Love are pleasing to You. The True Name is their Banner and Insignia. ||3||

No one knows the limits of the True Lord.

In all places and interspaces, the True One is pervading.

O Nanak, meditate forever on the True One, the Searcher of hearts, the Knower of all. ||4||37||44||

Maajh, Fifth Mehl:

Beautiful is the night, and beautiful is the day,

when one joins the Society of the Saints and chants the Ambrosial Naam.

If you remember the Lord in meditation for a moment, even for an instant, then your life will become fruitful and prosperous. ||1||

Remembering the Naam, the Name of the Lord, all sinful mistakes are erased.

Inwardly and outwardly, the Lord God is always with us.

Fear, dread and doubt have been dispelled by the Perfect Guru; now, I see God everywhere. ||2||

God is All-powerful, Vast, Lofty and Infinite.

The Naam is overflowing with the nine treasures.

In the beginning, in the middle, and in the end, there is God. Nothing else even comes close to Him. ||3||

Take pity on me, O my Lord, Merciful to the meek.

I am a beggar, begging for the dust of the feet of the Holy.

Servant Nanak begs for this gift: let me meditate on the Lord, forever and ever. ||4||38||45||

Maajh, Fifth Mehl:

You are here, and You are hereafter.

All beings and creatures were created by You.

Without You, there is no other, O Creator. You are my Support and my Protection. ||1||

The tongue lives by chanting and meditating on the Lord's Name.

The Supreme Lord God is the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts.

Those who serve the Lord find peace; they do not lose their lives in the gamble. ||2||

Your humble servant, who obtains the Medicine of the Naam,

Section 06 - Raag Maajh - Part 015

is rid of the illnesses of countless lifetimes and incarnations.

So sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, day and night. This is the most fruitful occupation. ||3||

Bestowing His Glance of Grace, He has adorned His slave.
