So vibrate continually in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, O Nanak, and the sins you committed shall be erased. ||1||

Practicing deceit, you fill your belly, you ignorant fool!

The Lord, the Great Giver, continues to give you everything.

The Great Giver is always merciful. Why should we forget the Lord Master from our minds?

Join the Saadh Sangat, and vibrate fearlessly; all your relations shall be saved.

The Siddhas, the seekers, the demi-gods, the silent sages and the devotees, all take the Naam as their support.

Prays Nanak, vibrate continually upon God, the One Creator Lord. ||2||

Do not practice deception - God is the Assayer of all.

Those who practice falsehood and deceit are reincarnated in the world.

Those who meditate on the One Lord, cross over the world-ocean.

Renouncing sexual desire, anger, flattery and slander, they enter the Sanctuary of God.

The lofty, inaccessible and infinite Lord and Master is pervading the water, the land and the sky.

Prays Nanak, He is the support of His servants; His Lotus Feet are their only sustenance. ||3||

Behold - the world is a mirage; nothing here is permanent.

The pleasures of Maya which are here, shall not go with you.

The Lord, your companion, is always with you; remember Him day and night.

Without the One Lord, there is no other; burn away the love of duality.

Know in your mind, that the One God is your friend, youth, wealth and everything.

Prays Nanak, by great good fortune, we find the Lord, and merge in peace and celestial poise. ||4||4||13||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl, Chhant, Eighth House:

One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

Maya is the wall of doubt - Maya is the wall of doubt. It is such a powerful and destructive intoxicant; it corrupts and wastes away one's life.

In the terrible, impenetrable world-forest - in the terrible, impenetrable world-forest, the thieves are plundering man's house in broad daylight; night and day, this life is being consumed.

The days of your life are being consumed; they are passing away without God. So meet God, the Merciful Lord.

Section 08 - Raag Aasaa - Part 116

I passed through so many births and deaths; without Union with the Beloved, I did not obtain salvation.

I am without the status of high birth, beauty, glory or spiritual wisdom; without You, who is mine, O Mother?

With my palms pressed together, O Nanak, I enter the Lord's Sanctuary; O beloved almighty Lord and Master, please, save me! ||1||

Like a fish out of water - like a fish out of water, separated from the Lord, the mind and body perish; how can I live, without my Beloved?

Facing the arrow head-on - facing the arrow head-on, the deer surrenders his mind, body and breath of life; he is struck by the hunter's soothing music.
