Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Saarang

Nanak has met God, the Treasure of Excellence; all dependence on others is gone. ||2||26||49||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

I have the Almighty Support of my Dear Lord God.

I do not look up to anyone else. My honor and glory are Yours, O God. ||1||Pause||

God has taken my side; He has lifted me up and pulled me out of the whirlpool of corruption.

He has poured the medicine of the Naam, the Ambrosial Name of the Lord, into my mouth; I have fallen at the Guru's Feet. ||1||

How can I praise You with only one mouth? You are generous, even to the unworthy.

You cut away the noose, and now You own me; Nanak is blessed with myriad joys. ||2||27||50||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

Remembering God in meditation, pains are dispelled.

When the Giver of peace to the soul becomes merciful, the mortal is totally redeemed. ||1||Pause||

I know of none other than God; tell me, who else should I approach?

As You know me, so do You keep me, O my Lord and Master.I have surrendered everything to You. ||1||

God gave me His Hand and saved me; He has blessed me with eternal life.

Says Nanak, my mind is in ecstasy; the noose of death has been cut away from my neck. ||2||28||51||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

My mind contemplates You, O Lord, all the time.

I am Your meek and helpless child; You are God my Father. As You know me, You save me. ||1||Pause||

When I am hungry, I ask for food; when I am full, I am totally at peace.

When I dwell with You, I am free of disease; if I become separated from You, I turn to dust. ||1||

What power does the slave of Your slave have, O Establisher and Disestablisher?

If I do not forget the Naam, the Name of the Lord, then I die. Nanak offers this prayer. ||2||29||52||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

I have shaken off fear and dread from my mind.

With intuitive ease, peace and poise, I sing the Glorious Praises of my Kind, Sweet, Darling Beloved. ||1||Pause||

Practicing the Guru's Word, by His Grace, I do not wander anywhere anymore.

The illusion has been dispelled; I am in Samaadhi, Sukh-aasan, the position of peace. I have found the Lord, the Lover of His devotees, within the home of my own heart. ||1||

| The Sound-current of the Naad, playful joys and pleasures - I am intuitively, easily absorbed into the Celestial Lord.

He Himself is the Creator, the Cause of causes. Says Nanak, He Himself is All-in-all. ||2||30||53||

Section 30 - Raag Saarang - Part 019

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

The Ambrosial Nectar of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the Support of the mind.

I am a sacrifice to the One who gave it to me; I humbly bow to the Perfect Guru. ||1||Pause||

My thirst is quenched, and I have been intuitively embellished. The poisons of sexual desire and anger have been burnt away.
