Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Gauree

Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the Support of the breath of life of His devotees.

The Naam is their wealth, the Naam is their occupation. ||1||

By the greatness of the Naam, His humble servants are blessed with glory.

The Lord Himself bestows it, in His Mercy. ||1||Pause||

The Naam is the home of peace of His devotees.

Attuned to the Naam, His devotees are approved. ||2||

The Name of the Lord is the support of His humble servants.

With each and every breath, they remember the Naam. ||3||

Says Nanak, those who have perfect destiny

- their minds are attached to the Naam. ||4||49||118||

Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

By the Grace of the Saints, I meditated on the Name of the Lord.

Since then, my restless mind has been satisfied. ||1||

I have obtained the home of peace, singing His Glorious Praises.

My troubles have ended, and the demon has been destroyed. ||1||Pause||

Worship and adore the Lotus Feet of the Lord God.

Meditating in remembrance on the Lord, my anxiety has come to an end. ||2||

I have renounced all - I am an orphan. I have come to the Sanctuary of the One Lord.

Since then, I have found the highest celestial home. ||3||

My pains, troubles, doubts and fears are gone.

The Creator Lord abides in Nanak's mind. ||4||50||119||

Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

With my hands I do His work; with my tongue I sing His Glorious Praises.

Section 07 - Raag Gauree - Part 040

With my feet, I walk on the Path of my Lord and Master. ||1||

It is a good time, when I remember Him in meditation.

Meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, I cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||1||Pause||

With your eyes, behold the Blessed Vision of the Saints.

Record the Immortal Lord God within your mind. ||2||

Listen to the Kirtan of His Praises, at the Feet of the Holy.

Your fears of birth and death shall depart. ||3||

Enshrine the Lotus Feet of your Lord and Master within your heart.

Thus this human life, so difficult to obtain, shall be redeemed. ||4||51||120||

Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

Those, upon whom the Lord Himself showers His Mercy,

chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord, with their tongues. ||1||

Forgetting the Lord, superstition and sorrow shall overtake you.

Meditating on the Naam, doubt and fear shall depart. ||1||Pause||

Listening to the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, and singing the Lord's Kirtan,

misfortune shall not even come near you. ||2||

Working for the Lord, His humble servants look beautiful.

The fire of Maya does not touch them. ||3||

Within their minds, bodies and mouths, is the Name of the Merciful Lord.

Nanak has renounced other entanglements. ||4||52||121||
