Gauree, Chhant, First Mehl:

243 : 4342
Hear me, O my Dear Husband God - I am all alone in the wilderness.

243 : 4343
How can I find comfort without You, O my Carefree Husband God?

243 : 4344
The soul-bride cannot live without her Husband; the night is so painful for her.

243 : 4345
Sleep does not come. I am in love with my Beloved. Please, listen to my prayer!

243 : 4346
Other than my Beloved, no one cares for me; I cry all alone in the wilderness.

243 : 4347
O Nanak, the bride meets Him when He causes her to meet Him; without her Beloved, she suffers in pain. ||1||

243 : 4348
She is separated from her Husband Lord - who can unite her with Him?

243 : 4349
Tasting His Love, she meets Him, through the Beautiful Word of His Shabad.

243 : 4350
Adorned with the Shabad, she obtains her Husband, and her body is illuminated with the lamp of spiritual wisdom.

243 : 4351
Listen, O my friends and companions - she who is at peace dwells upon the True Lord and His True Praises.

243 : 4352
Meeting the True Guru, she is ravished and enjoyed by her Husband Lord; she blossoms forth with the Ambrosial Word of His Bani.

243 : 4353
O Nanak, the Husband Lord enjoys His bride when she is pleasing to His Mind. ||2||

243 : 4354
Fascination with Maya made her homeless; the false are cheated by falsehood.

243 : 4355
How can the noose around her neck be untied, without the Most Beloved Guru?

243 : 4356
One who loves the Beloved Lord, and reflects upon the Shabad, belongs to Him.

243 : 4357
How can giving donations to charities and countless cleansing baths wash off the filth within the heart?

243 : 4358
Without the Naam, no one attains salvation. Stubborn self-discipline and living in the wilderness are of no use at all.

243 : 4359
O Nanak, the home of Truth is attained through the Shabad. How can the Mansion of His Presence be known through duality? ||3||

243 : 4360
True is Your Name, O Dear Lord; True is contemplation of Your Shabad.

243 : 4361
True is the Mansion of Your Presence, O Dear Lord, and True is trade in Your Name.

243 : 4362
Trade in Your Name is very sweet; the devotees earn this profit night and day.

243 : 4363
Other than this, I can think of no other merchandise. So chant the Naam each and every moment.

243 : 4364
The account is read; by the Grace of the True Lord and good karma, the Perfect Lord is obtained.

243 : 4365
O Nanak, the Nectar of the Name is so sweet. Through the Perfect True Guru, it is obtained. ||4||2||

243 : 4366
Raag Gauree Poorbee, Chhant, Third Mehl:

243 : 4367
One Universal Creator God. Truth Is The Name. Creative Being Personified. By Guru's Grace:

243 : 4368
The soul-bride offers her prayers to her Dear Lord; she dwells upon His Glorious Virtues.

243 : 4369
She cannot live without her Beloved Lord, for a moment, even for an instant.

243 : 4370
She cannot live without her Beloved Lord; without the Guru, the Mansion of His Presence is not found.

243 : 4371
Whatever the Guru says, she should surely do, to extinguish the fire of desire.

243 : 4372
The Lord is True; there is no one except Him. Without serving Him, peace is not found.

243 : 4373
O Nanak, that soul-bride, whom the Lord Himself unites, is united with Him; He Himself merges with her. ||1||

243 : 4374
The life-night of the soul-bride is blessed and joyful, when she focuses her consciousness on her Dear Lord.

243 : 4375
She serves the True Guru with love; she eradicates selfishness from within.

243 : 4376
Eradicating selfishness and conceit from within, and singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord, she is in love with the Lord, night and day.

243 : 4377
Listen, dear friends and companions of the soul - immerse yourselves in the Word of the Guru's Shabad.
