Servant Nanak begs for this one gift: please bless me, Lord, with the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan; my mind is in love with You. ||2||

Shalok, Fifth Mehl:

960 : 3818
Blind inwardly, and blind outwardly, he sings falsely, falsely.

960 : 3819
He washes his body, and draws ritual marks on it, and totally runs after wealth.

960 : 3820
But the filth of his egotism is not removed from within, and over and over again, he comes and goes in reincarnation.

960 : 3821
Engulfed in sleep, and tormented by frustrated sexual desire, he chants the Lord's Name with his mouth.

960 : 3822
He is called a Vaishnav, but he is bound to deeds of egotism; by threshing only husks, what rewards can be obtained?

960 : 3823
Sitting among the swans, the crane does not become one of them; sitting there, he keeps staring at the fish.

960 : 3824
And when the gathering of swans looks and sees, they realize that they can never form an alliance with the crane.

960 : 3825
The swans peck at the diamonds and pearls, while the crane chases after frogs.

960 : 3826
The poor crane flies away, so that his secret will not be exposed.

960 : 3827
Whatever the Lord attaches one to, to that he is attached. Who is to blame, when the Lord wills it so?

960 : 3828
The True Guru is the lake, overflowing with pearls. One who meets the True Guru obtains them.

960 : 3829
The Sikh-swans gather at the lake, according to the Will of the True Guru.

960 : 3830
The lake is filled with the wealth of these jewels and pearls; they are spent and consumed, but they never run out.

960 : 3831
The swan never leaves the lake; such is the Pleasure of the Creator's Will.

960 : 3832
O servant Nanak, one who has such pre-ordained destiny inscribed upon his forehead - that Sikh comes to the Guru.

960 : 3833
He saves himself, and saves all his generations as well; he emancipates the whole world. ||1||

960 : 3834
Fifth Mehl:

960 : 3835
He is called a Pandit, a religious scholar, and yet he wanders along many pathways. He is as hard as uncooked beans.

960 : 3836
He is filled with attachment, and constantly engrossed in doubt; his body cannot hold still.

960 : 3837
False is his coming, and false is his going; he is continually on the lookout for Maya.

960 : 3838
If someone speaks the truth, then he is aggravated; he is totally filled with anger.

960 : 3839
The evil fool is engrossed in evil-mindedness and false intellectualizations; his mind is attached to emotional attachment.

960 : 3840
The deceiver abides with the five deceivers; it is a gathering of like minds.

960 : 3841
And when the Jeweller, the True Guru, appraises him, then he is exposed as mere iron.

960 : 3842
Mixed and mingled with others, he was passed off as genuine in many places; but now, the veil has been lifted, and he stands naked before all.

960 : 3843
One who comes to the Sanctuary of the True Guru, shall be transformed from iron into gold.

960 : 3844
The True Guru has no anger or vengeance; He looks upon son and enemy alike. Removing faults and mistakes, He purifies the human body.

960 : 3845
O Nanak, one who has such pre-ordained destiny inscribed upon his forehead, is in love with the True Guru.
