Without the Name of the Lord, the soul is polluted.

The True Lord God has Himself administered the intoxicating drug of corruption, and led the mortal astray. ||1||Pause||

1224 : 944
Wandering through millions of incarnations in countless ways, he does not find stability anywhere.

1224 : 945
The faithless cynic does not intuitively meet with the Perfect True Guru; he continues coming and going in reincarnation. ||1||

Please save me, O All-powerful Lord God, O Great Giver; O God, You are Inaccessible and Infinite.

To chant the Glorious Praises of the Lord is Sublime.

1224 : 950
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, meditate on the Transcendent Lord God; The taste of His essence is Ambrosial Nectar. ||1||Pause||

1224 : 951
Meditating in remembrance on the One Unmoving, Eternal, Unchanging Lord God, the intoxication of Maya wears off.

1224 : 952
One who is blessed with intuitive peace and poise, and the vibrations of the Unstruck Celestial Bani, never suffers again. ||1||

1224 : 953
Even Brahma and his sons sing God's Praises; Sukdayv and Prahlaad sing His Praises as well.

1224 : 954
Drinking in the fascinating Ambrosial Nectar of the Lord's sublime essence, Nanak meditates on the Amazing Lord. ||2||80||103||

1224 : 955
Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

1224 : 956
He commits many millions of sins.

1224 : 957
Day and night, he does not get tired of them, and he never finds release. ||1||Pause||

1224 : 958
He carries on his head a terrible, heavy load of sin and corruption.

Continued...

1224 : 959
In an instant, he is exposed. The Messenger of Death seizes him by his hair. ||1||

1224 : 960
He is consigned to countless forms of reincarnation, into beasts, ghosts, camels and donkeys.

1224 : 961
Vibrating and meditating on the Lord of the Universe in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, O Nanak, you shall never be struck or harmed at all. ||2||81||104||

1224 : 962
Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

1224 : 963
He is so blind! He is eating loads of poison.

1224 : 964
His eyes, ears and body are totally exhausted; he shall lose his breath in an instant. ||1||Pause||

1224 : 965
Making the poor suffer, he fills his belly, but the wealth of Maya shall not go with him.

1224 : 966
Committing sinful mistakes again and again, he regrets and repents, but he can never give them up. ||1||

1224 : 967
The Messenger of Death comes to slaughter the slanderer; he beats him on his head.

O Nanak, he cuts himself with his own dagger, and damages his own mind. ||2||82||105||

1224 : 969
Saarang, Fifth Mehl:

1224 : 970
The slanderer is destroyed in mid-stream.

1224 : 971
Our Lord and Master is the Saving Grace, the Protector of His humble servants; those who have turned their backs on the Guru are overtaken by death. ||1||Pause||

1224 : 972
No one listens to what he says; he is not allowed to sit anywhere.

1224 : 973
He suffers in pain here, and falls into hell hereafter. He wanders in endless reincarnations. ||1||

1224 : 974
He has become infamous across worlds and galaxies; he receives according to what he has done.

1224 : 975
Nanak seeks the Sanctuary of the Fearless Creator Lord; he sings His Glorious Praises in ecstasy and bliss. ||2||83||106||

1224 : 976

Desire plays itself out in so many ways.
