Saarang, Fifth Mehl, Chau-Padas, Fifth House:

1229 : 1131
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1229 : 1132
Meditate, vibrate on the Lord; other actions are corrupt.

1229 : 1133
Pride, attachment and desire are not quenched; the world is in the grip of death. ||1||Pause||

1229 : 1134
Eating, drinking, laughing and sleeping, life passes uselessly.

1229 : 1135
The mortal wanders in reincarnation, burning in the hellish environment of the womb; in the end, he is destroyed by death. ||1||

1229 : 1136
He practices fraud, cruelty and slander against others; he sins, and washes his hands.

1229 : 1137
Without the True Guru, he has no understanding; he is lost in the utter darkness of anger and attachment. ||2||

1229 : 1138
He takes the intoxicating drugs of cruelty and corruption, and is plundered. He is not conscious of the Creator Lord God.

1229 : 1139
The Lord of the Universe is hidden and unattached. The mortal is like a wild elephant, intoxicated with the wine of egotism. ||3||

1229 : 1140
In His Mercy, God saves His Saints; they have the Support of His Lotus Feet.

1229 : 1141
With his palms pressed together, Nanak has come to the Sanctuary of the Primal Being, the Infinite Lord God. ||4||1||129||

Saarang, Fifth Mehl, Sixth House, Partaal:

1229 : 1143
One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:

1229 : 1144
Chant His Sublime Word and His Priceless Glories.

1229 : 1145
Why are you indulding in corrupt actions?

1229 : 1146
Look at this, see and understand!

1229 : 1147
Meditate on the Word of the Guru's Shabad, and attain the Mansion of the Lord's Presence.

1229 : 1148
Imbued with the Love of the Lord, you shall totally play with Him. ||1||Pause||

1229 : 1149
The world is a dream.

1229 : 1150
Its expanse is false.

1229 : 1151
O my companion, why are you so enticed by the Enticer? Enshrine the Love of Your Beloved within your heart. ||1||

1229 : 1152
He is total love and affection.

1229 : 1153
God is always merciful.

1229 : 1154
Others - why are you involved with others?

1229 : 1155
Remain involved with the Lord.

1229 : 1156
When you join the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy,

1229 : 1157
says Nanak, meditate on the Lord.

1229 : 1158
Now, your association with death is ended. ||2||1||130||

1229 : 1159
Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

1229 : 1160
You may make donations of gold,

1229 : 1161
and give away land in charity

1229 : 1162
and purify your mind in various ways,

1229 : 1163
but none of this is equal to the Lord's Name. Remain attached to the Lord's Lotus Feet. ||1||Pause||

1229 : 1164
You may recite the four Vedas with your tongue,

1229 : 1165
and listen to the eighteen Puraanas and the six Shaastras with your ears,

1229 : 1166
but these are not equal to the celestial melody of the Naam, the Name of the Lord of the Universe.

1229 : 1167
Remain attached to the Lord's Lotus Feet. ||1||

1229 : 1168
You may observe fasts, and say your prayers, purify yourself

1229 : 1169
and do good deeds; you may go on pilgrimages everywhere and eat nothing at all.

1229 : 1170
You may cook your food without touching anyone;

1229 : 1171
you may make a great show of cleansing techniques,

1229 : 1172
and burn incense and devotional lamps, but none of these are equal to the Lord's Name.

1229 : 1173
O Merciful Lord, please hear the prayer of the meek and the poor.

1229 : 1174
Please grant me the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan, that I may see You with my eyes. The Naam is so sweet to servant Nanak. ||2||2||131||

1229 : 1175
Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

1229 : 1176
Meditate on the Lord, Raam, Raam, Raam. The Lord is your Help and Support. ||1||Pause||
