Ang-601 — Chapter 99

O Lord, Har, Har, be merciful to me, and lead me to meet the Guru; meeting the Guru, a sincere yearning for the Lord wells up in me. ||3||

Praise Him, the unfathomable and inaccessible Lord.

Each and every moment, sing the Lord's Name.

Be merciful, and meet me, O Guru, Great Giver; Nanak yearns for the Lord's devotional worship. ||4||2||8||

Jaitsree, Fourth Mehl:

With love and energetic affection, praise the Lord, the storehouse of Nectar.

My mind is drenched with the Lord's Name, and so it earns this profit.

Each and every moment, worship Him in devotion, day and night; through the Guru's Teachings, sincere love and devotion well up. ||1||

Chant the Glorious Praises of the Lord of the Universe, Har, Har.

Conquering mind and body, I have earned the profit of the Shabad.

Through the Guru's Teachings, the five demons are over-powered, and the mind and body are filled with a sincere yearning for the Lord. ||2||

The Name is a jewel - chant the Lord's Name.

Sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, and forever earn this profit.

O Lord, merciful to the meek, be kind to me, and bless me with sincere longing for the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. ||3||

Meditate on the Lord of the world - meditate within your mind.

The Lord of the Universe, Har, Har, is the only real profit in this world.

Blessed, blessed, is my Great Lord and Master God; O Nanak, meditate on Him, worship Him with sincere love and devotion. ||4||3||9||

Jaitsree, Fourth Mehl:

He Himself is the Yogi, and the way throughout the ages.

The Fearless Lord Himself is absorbed in Samaadhi.

He Himself, all by Himself, is all-pervading; He Himself blesses us with sincere love for the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||1||

He Himself is the lamp, and the Light pervading all the worlds.

He Himself is the True Guru; He Himself churns the ocean.

He Himself churns it, churning up the essence; meditating on the jewel of the Naam, sincere love comes to the surface. ||2||

O my companions, let us meet and join together, and sing His Glorious Praises.

As Gurmukh, chant the Naam, and earn the profit of the Lord's Name.

Devotional worship of the Lord, Har, Har, has been implanted within me; it is pleasing to my mind. The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, brings a sincere love. ||3||

He Himself is supremely wise, the greatest King.

As Gurmukh, purchase the merchandise of the Naam.

O Lord God, Har, Har, bless me with such a gift, that Your Glorious Virtues seem pleasing to me; Nanak is filled with sincere love and yearning for the Lord. ||4||4||10||

Jaitsree, Fourth Mehl:

Joining the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation, and associating with the Guru,

the Gurmukh gathers in the merchandise of the Naam.

O Lord, Har, Har, Destroyer of demons, have mercy upon me; bless me with a sincere yearning to join the Sat Sangat. ||1||

Let me hear with my ears the Banis, the Hymns, in praise of the Lord;

be merciful, and let me meet the True Guru.

I sing His Glorious Praises, I speak the Bani of His Word; chanting His Glorious Praises, a sincere yearning for the Lord wells up. ||2||

I have tried visiting all the sacred shrines of pilgrimage, fasting, ceremonial feasts and giving to charities.

They do not measure up to the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.

The Lord's Name is unweighable, utterly heavy in weight; through the Guru's Teachings, a sincere yearning to chant the Name has welled up in me. ||3||

All good karma and righteous living are found in meditation on the Lord's Name.

It washes away the stains of sins and mistakes.

Be merciful to meek, humble Nanak; bless him with sincere love and yearning for the Lord. ||4||5||11||
