As Gurmukh, listen to the Naam, the Name of the Lord, O my sisters.

The One Lord is pervading and permeating deep within the heart; with your mouth, recite the Ambrosial Hymns of the Guru. ||1||Pause||

My mind and body are filled with divine love, and great sadness.

By great good fortune, I have obtained the True Guru, the Primal Being. ||2||

In the love of duality, the mortals wander through poisonous Maya.

The unfortunate ones do not meet the True Guru. ||3||

The Lord Himself inspires us to drink in the Lord's Ambrosial Elixir.

Through the Perfect Guru, O Nanak, the Lord is obtained. ||4||3||55||

Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

The Love of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the Support of my mind and body.

I chant the Naam; the Naam is the essence of peace. ||1||

So chant the Naam, O my friends and companions.

Without the Naam, there is nothing else for me. By great good fortune, as Gurmukh, I have received the Lord's Name. ||1||Pause||

Without the Naam, I cannot live.

By great good fortune, the Gurmukhs obtain the Naam. ||2||

Those who lack the Naam have their faces rubbed in the dirt of Maya.

Without the Naam, cursed, cursed are their lives. ||3||

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 021

The Great Lord is obtained by great good destiny.

O Nanak, the Gurmukh is blessed with the Naam. ||4||4||56||

Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

I sing His Glorious Praises, and through the Word of His Bani, I speak His Glorious Praises.

As Gurmukh, I chant and recite the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||

Chanting and meditating on the Naam, my mind becomes blissful.

The True Guru has implanted the True Name of the True Lord within me; I sing His Glorious Praises, and taste the supreme ecstasy. ||1||Pause||

The humble servants of the Lord sing the Lord's Glorious Praises.

By great good fortune, the detached, absolute Lord is obtained. ||2||

Those without virtue are stained by Maya's filth.

Lacking virtue, the egotistical die, and suffer reincarnation. ||3||

The ocean of the body yields pearls of virtue.

O Nanak, the Gurmukh churns this ocean, and discovers this essence. ||4||5||57||

Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

I listen to the Naam, the Name of the Lord; the Naam is pleasing to my mind.

By great good fortune, the Gurmukh obtains the Lord. ||1||

Chant the Naam, as Gurmukh, and be exalted.

Without the Naam, I have no other support; the Naam is woven into all my breaths and morsels of food. ||1||Pause||

The Naam illuminates my mind; listening to it, my mind is pleased.

One who speaks the Naam - he alone is my friend and companion. ||2||

Without the Naam, the fools depart naked.

They burn away to death, chasing the poison of Maya, like the moth chasing the flame. ||3||
