ੴ

Raamkalee, Fifth Mehl:

Let yourself be a sacrifice to the Blessed Vision of the Lord's Darshan.

Focus your heart's meditation on the Lord's lotus feet.

Apply the dust of the feet of the Saints to your forehead,

and the filthy evil-mindedness of countless incarnations will be washed off. ||1||

Meeting Him, egotistical pride is eradicated,

and you will come to see the Supreme Lord God in all. The Perfect Lord God has showered His Mercy. ||1||Pause||

This is the Guru's Praise, to chant the Name of the Lord.

This is devotion to the Guru, to sing forever the Glorious Praises of the Lord.

This is contemplation upon the Guru, to know that the Lord is close at hand.

Accept the Word of the Guru's Shabad as Truth. ||2||

Through the Word of the Guru's Teachings, look upon pleasure and pain as one and the same.

Hunger and thirst shall never afflict you.

The mind becomes content and satisfied through the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

Meditate on the Lord of the Universe, and He will cover all your faults. ||3||

The Guru is the Supreme Lord God; the Guru is the Lord of the Universe.

The Guru is the Great Giver, merciful and forgiving.

One whose mind is attached to the Guru's feet,

O slave Nanak, is blessed with perfect destiny. ||4||36||47||
