Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Bhairao

Repeating the Naam, one's bonds are broken. ||2||

Repeating the Naam, the Messenger of Death does not draw near.

Repeating the Naam, one finds peace in the Court of the Lord.

Repeating the Naam, God gives His Approval.

The Naam is my true wealth. ||3||

The Guru has instructed me in these sublime teachings.

The Kirtan of the Lord's Praises and the Naam are the Support of the mind.

Nanak is saved through the atonement of the Naam.

Other actions are just to please and appease the people. ||4||12||25||

Bhairao, Fifth Mehl:

I bow in humble worship, tens of thousands of times.

I offer this mind as a sacrifice.

Meditating in remembrance on Him, sufferings are erased.

Bliss wells up, and no disease is contracted. ||1||

Such is the diamond, the Immaculate Naam, the Name of the Lord.

Chanting it, all works are perfectly completed. ||1||Pause||

Beholding Him, the house of pain is demolished.

The mind seizes the cooling, soothing, Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam.

Millions of devotees worship His Feet.

He is the Fulfiller of all the mind's desires. ||2||

In an instant, He fills the empty to over-flowing.

In an instant, He transforms the dry into green.

In an instant, He gives the homeless a home.

In an instant, He bestows honor on the dishonored. ||3||

The One Lord is totally pervading and permeating all.

He alone meditates on the Lord, whose True Guru is Perfect.

Such a person has the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises for his Support.

Says Nanak, the Lord Himself is merciful to him. ||4||13||26||

Bhairao, Fifth Mehl:

I was discarded and abandoned, but He has embellished me.

He has blessed me with beauty and His Love; through His Name, I am exalted.

All my pains and sorrows have been eradicated.

The Guru has become my Mother and Father. ||1||

O my friends and companions, my household is in bliss.

Granting His Grace, my Husband Lord has met me. ||1||Pause||

The fire of desire has been extinguished, and all my desires have been fulfilled.

The darkness has been dispelled, and the Divine Light blazes forth.

The Unstruck Sound-current of the Shabad, the Word of God, is wondrous and amazing!

Perfect is the Grace of the Perfect Guru. ||2||

That person, unto whom the Lord reveals Himself

- by the Blessed Vision of his Darshan, I am forever enraptured.

He obtains all virtues and so many treasures.

The True Guru blesses him with the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||3||

That person who meets with his Lord and Master

- his mind and body are cooled and soothed, chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

Says Nanak, such a humble being is pleasing to God;
