Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Aasaa

I have shaken off the power of the evil demons. ||3||

I have obtained eternal bliss, and I constantly celebrate.

With the nine treasures of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, I am satisfied in my own home.

Says Nanak, when the happy soul-bride is adorned by her Beloved,

she is forever happy with her Husband Lord. ||4||7||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:

They give you donations and worship you.

You take from them, and then deny that they have given anything to you.

That door, through which you must ultimately go, O Brahmin

- at that door, you will come to regret and repent. ||1||

Such Brahmins shall drown, O Siblings of Destiny;

they think of doing evil to the innocent. ||1||Pause||

Within them is greed, and they wander around like mad dogs.

They slander others and carry loads of sin upon their heads.

Intoxicated by Maya, they do not think of the Lord.

Deluded by doubt, they wander off on many paths. ||2||

Outwardly, they wear various religious robes,

but within, they are enveloped by poison.

They instruct others, but do not understand themselves.

Such Brahmins will never be emancipated. ||3||

O foolish Brahmin, reflect upon God.

He watches and hears, and is always with you.

Says Nanak, if this is your destiny,

renounce your pride, and grasp the Guru's Feet. ||4||8||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 027

Pain and disease have left my body, and my mind has become pure; I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, Har, Har.

I am in bliss, meeting with the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, and now, my mind does not go wandering. ||1||

My burning desires are quenched, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, O mother.

The fever of doubt has been totally eliminated; meeting the Guru, I am cooled and soothed, with intuitive ease. ||1||Pause||

My wandering has ended, since I have realized the One and Only Lord; now, I have come to dwell in the eternal place.

Your Saints are the Saving Grace of the world; beholding the Blessed Vision of their Darshan, I remain satisfied. ||2||

I have left behind the sins of countless incarnations, now that I have grasped the feet of the eternal Holy Guru.

My mind sings the celestial melody of bliss,

and death shall no longer consume it. ||3||

My Lord, the Cause of all causes, is All-powerful, the Giver of peace; He is my Lord, my Lord King.

Nanak lives by chanting Your Name, O Lord; You are my helper, with me, through and through. ||4||9||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:

The slanderer cries out and bewails.

He has forgotten the Supreme Lord, the Transcendent Lord; the slanderer reaps the rewards of his own actions. ||1||Pause||

If someone is his companion, then he shall be taken along with him.
