Kalyaan, Fifth Mehl:

1323 : 133
My God is the Inner-knower, the Searcher of Hearts.

1323 : 134
Take pity on me, O Perfect Transcendent Lord; bless me with the True Eternal Insignia of the Shabad, the Word of God. ||1||Pause||

1323 : 135
O Lord, other than You, no one is all-powerful. You are the Hope and the Strength of my mind.

1323 : 136
You are the Giver to the hearts of all beings, O Lord and Master. I eat and wear whatever You give me. ||1||

1323 : 137
Intuitive understanding, wisdom and cleverness, glory and beauty, pleasure, wealth and honor,

1323 : 138
all comforts, bliss, happiness and salvation, O Nanak, come by chanting the Lord's Name. ||2||6||9||

1323 : 139
Kalyaan, Fifth Mehl:

1323 : 140
The Sanctuary of the Lord's Feet bring salvation.

1323 : 141
God's Name is the Purifier of sinners. ||1||Pause||

1323 : 142
Whoever chants and meditates in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, shall undoubtedly escape being consumed by the Messenger of Death. ||1||

1323 : 143
Liberation, the key to success, and all sorts of comforts do not equal loving devotional worship of the Lord.

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

1323 : 147
Hearing the Name of the Lord, the All-pervading Lord, my mind is drenched with joy.

Continued...

1323 : 148
The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is Ambrosial Nectar, the most Sweet and Sublime Essence; through the Guru's Teachings, drink it in with intuitive ease. ||1||Pause||

1323 : 149
The potential energy of fire is within the wood; it is released if you know how to rub it and generate friction.

1323 : 150
In just the same way, the Lord's Name is the Light within all; the Essence is extracted by following the Guru's Teachings. ||1||

1323 : 151
There are nine doors, but the taste of these nine doors is bland and insipid. The Essence of Ambrosial Nectar trickles down through the Tenth Door.

1323 : 152
Please take pity on me - be kind and compassionate, O my Beloved, that I may drink in the Sublime Essence of the Lord, through the Word of the Guru's Shabad. ||2||

1323 : 153
The body-village is the most sublime and exalted village, in which the merchandise of the Lord's Sublime Essence is traded.

1323 : 154
The most precious and priceless gems and jewels are obtained by serving the True Guru. ||3||

1323 : 155
The True Guru is Inaccessible; Inaccessible is our Lord and Master. He is the overflowing Ocean of bliss - worship Him with loving devotion.

1323 : 156
Please take pity on me, and be Merciful to this meek song-bird; please pour a drop of Your Name into my mouth. ||4||

1323 : 157
O Beloved Lord, please color my mind with the Deep Crimson Color of Your Love; I have surrendered my mind to the Guru.

1323 : 158
Those who are imbued with the Love of the Lord, Raam, Raam, Raam, continually drink in this essence in big gulps, savoring its sweet taste. ||5||

1323 : 159
If all the gold of the seven continents and the oceans was taken out and placed before them,

1323 : 160
the humble servants of my Lord and Master would not even want it. They beg for the Lord to bless them with the Lord's Sublime Essence. ||6||

1323 : 161
The faithless cynics and mortal beings remain hungry forever; they continually cry out in hunger.

1323 : 162
They hurry and run, and wander all around, caught in the love of Maya; they cover hundreds of thousands of miles in their wanderings. ||7||

1323 : 163
The humble servants of the Lord, Har, Har, Har, Har, Har, are sublime and exalted. What praise can we bestow upon them?
