Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Aasaa

By the healing ointment of the Guru's spiritual wisdom, one meets the Immaculate Lord God, who is totally pervading the water, the land and the sky.

If He dwells within the heart, for even an instant, sorrows are forgotten.

The wisdom of the all-powerful Lord and Master is incomprehensible; He is the Destroyer of the fears of all.

Prays Nanak, I meditate on the Lord's lotus feet. The Purifier of sinners is the Naam, the Pure Name of the Immaculate Lord. ||2||

I have grasped the protection of the merciful Lord, the Sustainer of the Universe, the treasure of grace.

I take the support of Your lotus feet, and in the protection of Your Sanctuary, I attain perfection.

The Lord's lotus feet are the cause of causes; the Lord Master saves even the sinners.

So many are saved; they cross over the terrifying world-ocean, contemplating the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

In the beginning and in the end, countless are those who seek the Lord. I have heard that the Society of the Saints is the way to salvation.

Prays Nanak, I meditate on the Lord's lotus feet, and grasp the protection of the Lord of the Universe, the merciful, the ocean of kindness. ||3||

The Lord is the Lover of His devotees; this is His natural way.

Wherever the Saints worship the Lord in adoration, there He is revealed.

God blends Himself with His devotees in His natural way, and resolves their affairs.

In the ecstasy of the Lord's Praises, they obtain supreme joy, and forget all their sorrows.
