Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Malaar

The Lord of the Universe is permeating and pervading my mind and body; I see Him Ever-present, here and now

. O Nanak, He is permeating the inner being of all; He is all-pervading everywhere. ||2||8||12||

Malaar, Fifth Mehl:

Vibrating and meditating on the Lord, who has not been carried across?

Those reborn into the body of a bird, the body of a fish, the body of a deer, and the body of a bull - in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, they are saved. ||1||Pause||

The families of gods, the families of demons, titans, celestial singers and human beings are carried across the ocean.

Whoever meditates and vibrates on the Lord in the Saadh Sangat - his pains are taken away. ||1||

Sexual desire, anger and the pleasures of terrible corruption - he keeps away from these.

He meditates on the Lord, Merciful to the meek, the Embodiment of Compassion; Nanak is forever a sacrifice to Him. ||2||9||13||

Malaar, Fifth Mehl:

Today, I am seated in the Lord's store.

With the wealth of the Lord, I have entered into partnership with the humble; I shall not have take the Highway of Death. ||1||Pause||

Showering me with His Kindness, the Supreme Lord God has saved me; the doors of doubt have been opened wide.

I have found God, the Banker of Infinity; I have earned the profit of the wealth of His Feet. ||1||

I have grasped the protection of the Sanctuary of the Unchanging, Unmoving, Imperishable Lord; He has picked up my sins and thrown them out.

Slave Nanak's sorrow and suffering has ended. He shall never again be squeezed into the mold of reincarnation. ||2||10||14||

Malaar, Fifth Mehl:

In so many ways, attachment to Maya leads to ruin.

Among millions, it is very rare to find a selfless servant who remains a perfect devotee for very long. ||1||Pause||

Roaming and wandering here and there, the mortal finds only trouble; his body and wealth become strangers to himself.

Hiding from people, he practices deception; he does not know the One who is always with him. ||1||

He wanders through troubled incarnations of low and wretched species as a deer, a bird and a fish.

Says Nanak, O God, I am a stone - please carry me across, that I may enjoy peace in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||2||11||15||

Malaar, Fifth Mehl:

The cruel and evil ones died after taking poison, O mother.

And the One, to whom all creatures belong, has saved us. God has granted His Grace. ||1||Pause||

The Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts, is contained within all; why should I be afraid, O Siblings of Destiny?

God, my Help and Support, is always with me. He shall never leave; I see Him everywhere. ||1||

He is the Master of the masterless, the Destroyer of the pains of the poor; He has attached me to the hem of His robe.
