O Nanak, if the soul-bride longs for peace, she should enshrine the Lord's Name within her mind. ||8||11||33||

Aasaa, Third Mehl:

Those whom the Lord has caused to drink in the Ambrosial Nectar, naturally, intuitively, enjoy the sublime essence.

The True Lord is care-free; he does not have even an iota of greed. ||1||

The True Ambrosial Nectar rains down, and trickles into the mouths of the Gurmukhs.

Their minds are forever rejuvenated, and they naturally, intuitively, sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

The self-willed manmukhs are forever forsaken brides; they cry out and bewail at the Lord's Gate.

Those who do not enjoy the sublime taste of their Husband Lord, act according to their pre-ordained destiny. ||2||

The Gurmukh plants the seed of the True Name, and it sprouts. He deals in the True Name alone.

Those whom the Lord has attached to this profitable venture, are granted the treasure of devotional worship. ||3||

The Gurmukh is forever the true, happy soul-bride; she adorns herself with the fear of God and devotion to Him.

Night and day, she enjoys her Husband Lord; she keeps Truth enshrined within her heart. ||4||

I am a sacrifice to those who have enjoyed their Husband Lord.

They dwell forever with their Husband Lord; they eradicate self-conceit from within. ||5||

Their bodies and minds are cooled and soothed, and their faces are radiant, from the love and affection of their Husband Lord.

They enjoy their Husband Lord upon His cozy bed, having conquered their ego and desire. ||6||

Granting His Grace, He comes into our homes, through our infinite Love for the Guru.

The happy soul-bride obtains the One Lord as her Husband. ||7||

All of her sins are forgiven; the Uniter unites her with Himself.

O Nanak, chant such chants, that hearing them, He may enshrine love for you. ||8||12||34||

Aasaa, Third Mehl:

Merit is obtained from the True Guru, when God causes us to meet Him.

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 083

Meditating on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, with intuitive ease and poise, spiritual wisdom is revealed. ||1||

O my mind, do not think of the Lord as being far away; behold Him ever close at hand.

He is always listening, and always watching over us; the Word of His Shabad is all-pervading everywhere. ||1||Pause||

The Gurmukhs understand their own selves; they meditate single-mindedly on the Lord.

They enjoy their Husband Lord continually; through the True Name, they find peace. ||2||

O my mind, no one belongs to you; contemplate the Shabad, and see this.

So run to the Lord's Sanctuary, and find the gate of salvation. ||3||

Listen to the Shabad, and understand the Shabad, and lovingly focus your consciousness on the True One.
