195 : 2086
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

195 : 2087
They wear and eat the gifts from the Lord;

195 : 2088
how can laziness help them, O mother? ||1||

195 : 2089
Forgetting her Husband Lord, and attaching herself to other affairs,

195 : 2090
the soul-bride throws away the precious jewel in exchange for a mere shell. ||1||Pause||

195 : 2091
Forsaking God, she is attached to other desires.

195 : 2092
But who has gained honor by saluting the slave? ||2||

195 : 2093
They consume food and drink, delicious and sublime as ambrosial nectar.

195 : 2094
But the dog does not know the One who has bestowed these. ||3||

195 : 2095
Says Nanak, I have been unfaithful to my own nature.

195 : 2096
Please forgive me, O God, O Searcher of hearts. ||4||76||145||

195 : 2097
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

195 : 2098
I meditate on the Feet of God within my mind.

195 : 2099
This is my cleansing bath at all the sacred shrines of pilgrimage. ||1||

195 : 2100
Meditate in remembrance on the Lord every day, O my Siblings of Destiny.

195 : 2101
Thus, the filth of millions of incarnations shall be taken away. ||1||Pause||

195 : 2102
Enshrine the Lord's Sermon within your heart,

195 : 2103
and you shall obtain all the desires of your mind. ||2||

195 : 2104
Redeemed is the life, death and birth of those,

195 : 2105
within whose hearts the Lord God abides. ||3||

195 : 2106
Says Nanak, those humble beings are perfect,

195 : 2107
who are blessed with the dust of the feet of the Holy. ||4||77||146||

195 : 2108
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

195 : 2109
They eat and wear what they are given, but still, they deny the Lord.

195 : 2110
The messengers of the Righteous Judge of Dharma shall hunt them down. ||1||

195 : 2111
They are unfaithful to the One, who has given them body and soul.

195 : 2112
Through millions of incarnations, for so many lifetimes, they wander lost. ||1||Pause||

195 : 2113
Such is the lifestyle of the faithless cynics;

195 : 2114
everything they do is evil. ||2||

195 : 2115
Within their minds, they have forgotten that Lord and Master, who created the soul, breath of life, mind and body. ||3||

195 : 2116
Their wickedness and corruption have increased - they are recorded in volumes of books.

195 : 2117
O Nanak, they are saved only by the Mercy of God, the Ocean of peace. ||4||

195 : 2118
O Supreme Lord God, I have come to Your Sanctuary.

195 : 2119
Break my bonds, and carry me across, with the Lord's Name. ||1||Second Pause||78||147||

195 : 2120
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

195 : 2121
For their own advantage, they make God their friend.

195 : 2122
He fulfills all their desires, and blesses them with the state of liberation. ||1||

195 : 2123
Everyone should make Him such a friend.

195 : 2124
No one goes away empty-handed from Him. ||1||Pause||

195 : 2125
For their own purposes, they enshrine the Lord in the heart;

195 : 2126
all pain, suffering and disease are taken away. ||2||

195 : 2127
Their tongues learn the habit of chanting the Lord's Name,

195 : 2128
and all their works are brought to perfection. ||3||

195 : 2129
So many times, Nanak is a sacrifice to Him;

195 : 2130
fruitful is the Blessed Vision, the Darshan, of my Lord of the Universe. ||4||79||148||

195 : 2131
Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

195 : 2132
Millions of obstacles are removed in an instant,

195 : 2133
for those who listen to the Sermon of the Lord, Har, Har, in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||1||

195 : 2134
They drink in the sublime essence of the Lord's Name, the Ambrosial Elixir.

195 : 2135
Meditating on the Lord's Feet, hunger is taken away. ||1||Pause||

195 : 2136
The treasure of all happiness, celestial peace and poise,

195 : 2137
are obtained by those, whose hearts are filled with the Lord God. ||2||
