Sorat'h, Fifth Mehl, First House, Ashtpadheeyaa:
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:
The One who created the whole world, O Siblings of Destiny, is the Almighty Lord, the Cause of causes.
He fashioned the soul and the body, O Siblings of Destiny, by His own power.
How can He be described? How can He be seen, O Siblings of Destiny? The Creator is One; He is indescribable.
Praise the Guru, the Lord of the Universe, O Siblings of Destiny; through Him, the essence is known. ||1||
O my mind, meditate on the Lord, the Lord God.
He blesses His servant with the gift of the Naam; He is the Destroyer of pain and suffering. ||Pause||
Everything is in His home, O Siblings of Destiny; His warehouse is overflowing with the nine treasures.
His worth cannot be estimated, O Siblings of Destiny; He is lofty, inaccessible and infinite.
He cherishes all beings and creatures, O Siblings of Destiny; he continually takes care of them.
So meet with the Perfect True Guru, O Siblings of Destiny, and merge in the Word of the Shabad. ||2||
Adoring the feet of the True Guru, O Siblings of Destiny, doubt and fear are dispelled.
Joining the Society of the Saints, cleanse your mind, O Siblings of Destiny, and dwell in the Name of the Lord.
The darkness of ignorance shall be dispelled, O Siblings of Destiny, and the lotus of your heart shall blossom forth.
By the Guru's Word, peace wells up, O Siblings of Destiny; all fruits are with the True Guru. ||3||
Give up your sense of mine and yours, O Siblings of Destiny, and become the dust of the feet of all.
In each and every heart, God is contained, O Siblings of Destiny; He sees, and hears, and is ever-present with us.
On that day when one forgets the Supreme Lord God, O Siblings of Destiny, on that day, one ought to die crying out in pain.
He is the all-powerful Cause of Causes, O Siblings of Destiny; he is totally filled with all powers. ||4||
The Love of the Name is the greatest treasure, O Siblings of Destiny; through it, emotional attachment to Maya is dispelled.
If it is pleasing to His Will, then He unites us in His Union, O Siblings of Destiny; the Naam, the Name of the Lord, comes to abide in the mind.
The heart-lotus of the Gurmukh blossoms forth, O Siblings of Destiny, and the heart is illumined.
The Glory of God has been revealed, O Siblings of Destiny, and the earth and sky have blossomed forth. ||5||
The Perfect Guru has blessed me with contentment, O Siblings of Destiny; day and night, I remain attached to the Lord's Love.
My tongue continually chants the Lord's Name, O Siblings of Destiny; this is the true taste, and the object of human life.
Listening with my ears, I hear and so I live, O Siblings of Destiny; I have obtained the unchanging, unmoving state.
That soul,which does not place its faith in the Lord shall burn, O Siblings of Destiny. ||6||
My Lord and Master has so many virtues, O Siblings of Destiny; I am a sacrifice to Him.
He nurtures even the most worthless, O Siblings of Destiny, and gives home to the homeless.
He gives us nourishment with each and every breath, O Siblings of Destiny; His Name is everlasting.
One who meets with the True Guru, O Siblings of Destiny, does so only by perfect destiny. ||7||
Without Him, I cannot live, even for an instant, O Siblings of Destiny; He is totally filled with all powers.
With every breath and morsel of food, I will not forget Him, O Siblings of Destiny; I behold Him ever-present.
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I meet Him, O Siblings of Destiny; He is totally pervading and permeating everywhere.
Those who do not embrace love for the Lord, O Siblings of Destiny, always die crying out in pain. ||8||
Grasping hold of the hem of His robe, O Siblings of Destiny, we are carried across the world-ocean of fear and pain.
By His Glance of Grace, He has blessed us, O Siblings of Destiny; He shall be with us until the very end.
My mind and body are soothed and calmed, O Siblings of Destiny, nourished by the food of the Naam.
Nanak has entered His Sanctuary, O Siblings of Destiny; the Lord is the Destroyer of sins. ||9||1||
