I sing His Praises while suffering, and I sing His Praises while I am at peace as well. I contemplate Him while I walk along the Path.

The Guru has implanted the Naam within my mind, and my thirst has been quenched. ||2||

I sing His Praises during the day, and I sing His Praises during the night; I sing them with each and every breath.

In the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, this faith is established, that the Lord is with us, in life and in death. ||3||

Bless servant Nanak with this gift, O God, that he may obtain, and enshrine in his heart, the dust of the feet of the Saints.

Hear the Lord's Sermon with your ears, and behold the Blessed Vision of His Darshan with your eyes; place your forehead upon the Guru's Feet. ||4||2||122||

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru: Aasaa, Tenth House, Fifth Mehl:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru: Aasaa, Tenth House, Fifth Mehl:

That which you believe to be permanent, is a guest here for only a few days.

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 056

Children, wives, homes, and all possessions - attachment to all of these is false. ||1||

O mind, why do you burst out laughing?

See with your eyes, that these things are only mirages. So earn the profit of meditation on the One Lord. ||1||Pause||

It is like the clothes which you wear on your body - they wear off in a few days.

How long can you run upon a wall? Ultimately, you come to its end. ||2||

It is like salt, preserved in its container; when it is put into water, it dissolves.

When the Order of the Supreme Lord God comes, the soul arises, and departs in an instant. ||3||

O mind, your steps are numbered, your moments spent sitting are numbered, and the breaths you are to take are numbered.

Sing forever the Praises of the Lord, O Nanak, and you shall be saved, under the Shelter of the Feet of the True Guru. ||4||1||123||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:

That which was upside-down has been set upright; the deadly enemies and adversaries have become friends.

In the darkness, the jewel shines forth, and the impure understanding has become pure. ||1||

When the Lord of the Universe became merciful,

I found peace, wealth and the fruit of the Lord's Name; I have met the True Guru. ||1||Pause||

No one knew me, the miserable miser, but now, I have become famous all over the world.

Before, no one would even sit with me, but now, all worship my feet. ||2||

I used to wander in search of pennies, but now, all the desires of my mind are satisfied.

I could not bear even one criticism, but now, in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I am cooled and soothed. ||3||

What Glorious Virtues of the Inaccessible, Unfathomable, Profound Lord can one mere tongue describe?
