Shri Guru Granth Sahib
Raag Sorat'h

Beholding the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, bliss ensues, pain is dispelled, and one sings the Lord's Praises. ||1||

Drink in the sublime essence of the Lord, O Siblings of Destiny.

Chant the Naam, the Name of the Lord; worship the Naam in adoration, and enter the Sanctuary of the Perfect Guru. ||Pause||

Only one who has such pre-ordained destiny receives it; he alone becomes perfect, O Siblings of Destiny.

Nanak's prayer, O Dear God, is to remain lovingly absorbed in the Naam. ||2||25||89||

Sorat'h, Fifth Mehl:

The Lord is the Cause of Causes, the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts; He preserves the honor of His servant.

He is hailed and congratulated throughout the world, and he tastes the sublime essence of the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||1||

Dear God, Lord of the world, You are my only support.

You are all-powerful, the Giver of Sanctuary; twenty-four hours a day, I meditate on You. ||Pause||

That humble being, who vibrates upon You, O God, is not afflicted by anxiety.

Attached to the Feet of the True Guru, his fear is dispelled, and within his mind, he sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||2||

He abides in celestial peace and utter ecstasy; the True Guru has comforted him.

He has returned home victorious, with honor, and his hopes have been fulfilled. ||3||

Perfect are the Teachings of the Perfect Guru; Perfect are the actions of God.

Grasping hold of the Guru's feet, Nanak has crossed over the terrifying world-ocean, chanting the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. ||4||26||90||

Sorat'h, Fifth Mehl:

Becoming merciful, the Destroyer of the pains of the poor has Himself devised all devices.

In an instant, He has saved His humble servant; the Perfect Guru has cut away his bonds. ||1||

O my mind, meditate forever on the Guru, the Lord of the Universe.

All illness shall depart from this body, and you shall obtain the fruits of your mind's desires. ||Pause||

God created all beings and creatures; He is lofty, inaccessible and infinite.

In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, Nanak meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; his face is radiant in the Court of the Lord. ||2||27||91||

Sorat'h, Fifth Mehl:

I meditate in remembrance on my Lord.

Day and night, I ever meditate on Him.

He gave me His hand, and protected me.

I drink in the most sublime essence of the Lord's Name. ||1||

Section 13 - Raag Sorat'h - Part 037

I am a sacrifice to my Guru.

God, the Great Giver, the Perfect One, has become merciful to me, and now, all are kind to me. ||Pause||

Servant Nanak has entered His Sanctuary.

He has perfectly preserved his honor.

All suffering has been dispelled.

So enjoy peace, O my Siblings of Destiny! ||2||28||92||
