Nanak meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||1||

838 : 1705
O Merciful Master of the meek, You are my Lord and Master, O Merciful Master of the meek.

838 : 1706
I yearn for the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||1||Pause||

838 : 1707
The world is a pit of poison,

838 : 1708
filled with the utter darkness of ignorance and emotional attachment.

838 : 1709
Please take my hand, and save me, Dear God.

838 : 1710
Please bless me with Your Name, Lord.

838 : 1711
Without You, God, I have no place at all.

838 : 1712
Nanak is a sacrifice, a sacrifice to You. ||2||

838 : 1713
The human body is in the grip of greed and attachment.

838 : 1714
Without meditating and vibrating upon the Lord, it is reduced to ashes.

838 : 1715
The Messenger of Death is dreadful and horrible.

838 : 1716
The recording scribes of the conscious and the unconscious, Chitr and Gupt, know all actions and karma.

O Lord, Destroyer of fear and egotism,

838 : 1720
be merciful, and save the sinners.

838 : 1721
My sins cannot even be counted.

838 : 1722
Without the Lord, who can hide them?

838 : 1723
I thought of Your Support, and seized it, O my Lord and Master.

838 : 1724
Please, give Nanak Your hand and save him, Lord! ||4||

838 : 1725
The Lord, the treasure of virtue, the Lord of the world,

838 : 1726
cherishes and and sustains every heart.

838 : 1727
My mind is thirsty for Your Love, and the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan.

838 : 1728
O Lord of the Universe, please fulfill my hopes.

838 : 1729
I cannot survive, even for an instant.

838 : 1730
By great good fortune, Nanak has found the Lord. ||5||

838 : 1731
Without You, God, there is no other at all.

838 : 1732
My mind loves You, as the partridge loves the moon,

838 : 1733
as the fish loves the water,

838 : 1734
as the bee and the lotus cannot be separated.

838 : 1735
As the chakvi bird longs for the sun,

Continued...

so does Nanak thirst for the Lord's feet. ||6||

838 : 1737
As the young bride places the hopes of her life in her husband,

838 : 1738
as the greedy person looks upon the gift of wealth,

838 : 1739
as milk is joined to water,

838 : 1740
as food is to the very hungry man,

838 : 1741
and as the mother loves her son,

838 : 1742
so does Nanak constantly remember the Lord in meditation. ||7||

838 : 1743
As the moth falls into the lamp,

838 : 1744
as the thief steals without hesitation,

838 : 1745
as the elephant is trapped by its sexual urges,

838 : 1746
as the sinner is caught in his sins,

838 : 1747
as the gambler's addiction does not leave him,

838 : 1748
so is this mind of Nanak's attached to the Lord. ||8||

838 : 1749
As the deer loves the sound of the bell,

838 : 1750
and as the song-bird longs for the rain,

838 : 1751
the Lord's humble servant lives in the Society of the Saints,

838 : 1752
lovingly meditating and vibrating upon the Lord of the Universe.

838 : 1753
My tongue chants the Naam, the Name of the Lord.

838 : 1754
Please bless Nanak with the gift of the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. ||9||

He saves all his ancestors and generations,

838 : 1758
and crosses over the world-ocean.

838 : 1759
The Lord's Feet are the boat to carry him across.

838 : 1760
Joining the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, he sings the Praises of the Lord.
