822 : 1121
The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is infinite and priceless.

I come face to face with my Beloved, by great good fortune; my Husband Lord never wavers. ||1||

822 : 1135
What am I? Just a poor living being. I cannot even describe one of Your hairs, O Lord.

822 : 1136
Even Brahma, Shiva, the Siddhas and the silent sages do not know Your State, O Infinite Lord and Master. ||1||

822 : 1137
What can I say? I cannot say anything.

822 : 1138
Wherever I look, I see the Lord pervading. ||1||Pause||

822 : 1139
And there, where the most terrible tortures are heard to be inflicted by the Messenger of Death, You are my only help and support, O my God.

O Wondrous Lord, I have heard that You are found by meeting the Saints, and focusing the mind on their feet, their holy feet. ||1||

822 : 1144
In what way, and by what discipline, is He obtained?

822 : 1145
Tell me, O good man, by what means can we meditate on Him? ||1||Pause||

822 : 1146
If one human being serves another human being, the one served stands by him.

Nanak seeks Your Sanctuary and Protection, O Lord, ocean of peace; He takes the Support of Your Name alone. ||2||6||92||

822 : 1148
Bilaaval, Fifth Mehl:

822 : 1149
I seek the Sanctuary of the Saints, and I serve the Saints.

I am rid of all worldly concerns, bonds, entanglements and other affairs. ||1||Pause||
