367 : 935
Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

367 : 936
I sing His Glorious Praises, and through the Word of His Bani, I speak His Glorious Praises.

367 : 937
As Gurmukh, I chant and recite the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||

367 : 938
Chanting and meditating on the Naam, my mind becomes blissful.

367 : 939
The True Guru has implanted the True Name of the True Lord within me; I sing His Glorious Praises, and taste the supreme ecstasy. ||1||Pause||

367 : 940
The humble servants of the Lord sing the Lord's Glorious Praises.

367 : 941
By great good fortune, the detached, absolute Lord is obtained. ||2||

367 : 942
Those without virtue are stained by Maya's filth.

367 : 943
Lacking virtue, the egotistical die, and suffer reincarnation. ||3||

367 : 944
The ocean of the body yields pearls of virtue.

367 : 945
O Nanak, the Gurmukh churns this ocean, and discovers this essence. ||4||5||57||

367 : 946
Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

367 : 947
I listen to the Naam, the Name of the Lord; the Naam is pleasing to my mind.

367 : 948
By great good fortune, the Gurmukh obtains the Lord. ||1||

367 : 949
Chant the Naam, as Gurmukh, and be exalted.

367 : 950
Without the Naam, I have no other support; the Naam is woven into all my breaths and morsels of food. ||1||Pause||

367 : 951
The Naam illuminates my mind; listening to it, my mind is pleased.

367 : 952
One who speaks the Naam - he alone is my friend and companion. ||2||

367 : 953
Without the Naam, the fools depart naked.

367 : 954
They burn away to death, chasing the poison of Maya, like the moth chasing the flame. ||3||

367 : 955
He Himself establishes, and, having established, disestablishes.

Continued...

367 : 956
O Nanak, the Lord Himself bestows the Naam. ||4||6||58||

367 : 957
Aasaa, Fourth Mehl:

367 : 958
The vine of the Lord's Name, Har, Har, has taken root in the Gurmukh.

367 : 959
It bears the fruit of the Lord; its taste is so tasty! ||1||

367 : 960
Chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, in endless waves of joy.

367 : 961
Chant and repeat the Naam; through the Guru's Teachings praise the Lord, and slay the horrible serpent of the Messenger of Death. ||1||Pause||

367 : 962
The Lord has implanted His devotional worship in the Guru.

367 : 963
When the Guru is pleased, He bestows it upon His Sikh, O my siblings of Destiny. ||2||

367 : 964
One who acts in ego, knows nothing about the Way.

367 : 965
He acts like an elephant, who takes a bath, and then throws dust on his head. ||3||

367 : 966
If one's destiny is great and exalted,

367 : 967
O Nanak, one chants the Naam, the Name of the Immaculate, True Lord. ||4||7||59||

Hearing the Naam, my mind is satisfied, O my Siblings of Destiny. ||1||

367 : 971
Chant the Naam, O my friends, O GurSikhs.

367 : 972
Chant the Naam, and through the Naam, obtain peace; through the Guru's Teachings, enshrine the Naam in your heart and mind. ||1||Pause||

367 : 973
Hearing the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the mind is in bliss.

367 : 974
Reaping the profit of the Naam, through the Guru's Teachings, my soul has blossomed forth. ||2||

367 : 975
Without the Naam, the mortal is a leper, blinded by emotional attachment.

367 : 976
All his actions are fruitless; they lead only to painful entanglements. ||3||

367 : 977
The very fortunate ones chant the Praises of the Lord, Har, Har, Har.
