So renounce all other efforts, and enshrine the Lord's Lotus Feet within your mind. ||1||

God is the Support of the breath of life, my Best Friend and Companion, the One and Only Creator of the Universe.

Nanak's Lord and Master is the Highest of all; again and again, I humbly bow to Him. ||2||49||72||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

Tell me: other than the Lord, who exists?

The Creator, the Embodiment of Mercy, bestows all comforts; meditate forever on that God. ||1||Pause||

All creatures are strung on His Thread; sing the Praises of that God.

Meditate in remembrance on that Lord and Master who gives you everything. Why would you go to anyone else? ||1||

Service to my Lord and Master is fruitful and rewarding; from Him, you shall obtain the fruits of your mind's desires.

Says Nanak, take your profits and leave; you shall go to your true home in peace. ||2||50||73||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

O my Lord and Master, I have come to Your Sanctuary.

The anxiety of my mind departed, when I gazed upon the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. ||1||Pause||

You know my condition, without my speaking. You inspire me to chant Your Name.

My pains are gone, and I am absorbed in peace, poise and bliss, singing Your Glorious Praises. ||1||

Taking me by the arm, You lifted me up, out of the deep dark pit of household and Maya.

Says Nanak, the Guru has broken my bonds, and ended my separaation; He has united me with God. ||2||51||74||

Section 30 - Raag Saarang - Part 023

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

The Name of the Lord is cooling and soothing.

Searching, searching the Vedas, the Puraanas and the Simritees, the Holy Saints have realized this. ||1||Pause||

In the worlds of Shiva, Brahma and Indra, I wandered around, burning up with envy.

Meditating, meditating in remembrance on my Lord and Master, I became cool and calm; my pains, sorrows and doubts are gone. ||1||

Whoever has been saved in the past or the present, was saved through loving devotional worship of the Divine Lord.

This is Nanak's prayer: O Dear God, please let me serve the humble Saints. ||2||52||75||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl;

O my tongue, sing the Ambrosial Praises of the Lord.

Chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, listen to the Lord's Sermon, and chant God's Name. ||1||Pause||

So gather in the jewel, the wealth of the Lord's Name; love God with your mind and body.

You must realize that all other wealth is false; this alone is the true purpose of life. ||1||

He is the Giver of the soul, the breath of life and liberation; lovingly tune in to the One and Only Lord.

Says Nanak, I have entered His Sanctuary; He gives sustenance to all. ||2||53||76||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

I cannot do anything else.
