ੴ

Soohee, Fifth Mehl:

Blessed is that soul-bride, who realizes God.

She obeys the Hukam of His Order, and abandons her self-conceit.

Imbued with her Beloved, she celebrates in delight. ||1||

Listen, O my companions - these are the signs on the Path to meet God.

Dedicate your mind and body to Him; stop living to please others. ||1||Pause||

One soul-bride counsels another,

to do only that which pleases God.

Such a soul-bride merges into the Being of God. ||2||

One who is in the grip of pride does not obtain the Mansion of the Lord's Presence.

She regrets and repents, when her life-night passes away.

The unfortunate self-willed manmukhs suffer in pain. ||3||

I pray to God, but I think that He is far away.

God is imperishable and eternal; He is pervading and permeating everywhere.

Servant Nanak sings of Him; I see Him Ever-present everywhere. ||4||3||
