Meditate on the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, O my soul; to the Gurmukh, the Name of the Lord is priceless. My mind is pierced by the sublime essence of the Lord�s Name. The Lord is dear to my mind. My mind is washed clean by the sublime essence of the Lord�s Name. Through the Guru�s Teachings, hold the mind steady, O my soul; do not let it wander anywhere. One who chants the Bani of the Praises of the Lord God, O Nanak, obtains the fruits of his mind�s desires. || 1 || Through the Guru�s Teachings, the Nectar abides within the mind, O my soul; with your mouth, chants the words of Ambrosia. The Words of the devotees are Ambrosial Nectar, O my soul; hear them in the mind, and embrace loving affection for the Lord. Separated for so very long, I have found the Lord God, intuitively hugged in His Loving Embrace. Servant Nanak�s mind is filled with bliss, O my soul, vibrating the unstruck Sound-current of the Shabad. || 2 || If only my friends and companions would come and unite me with my Lord God, O my soul. I dedicate my mind to one who recites the sermon of my Lord God, O my soul. As Gurmukh, worship the Lord in adoration forever, O my soul, and you shall obtain the fruits of your mind�s desires. O Nanak, hurry to the Lord�s Sanctuary, O my soul; those who meditate on the Lord�s Name are very fortunate. || 3 || By His Grace, God comes to meet us, O my soul; through the Guru�s Teachings, His Name is revealed. Without the Lord, I am so sad, O my soul � as sad as the lotus without water. The Perfect Guru, O my soul, has united me with the Lord, my best Friend, the Lord God. Blessed, blessed is the Guru, who has shown me the Lord, O my soul; servant Nanak blossoms forth in the Name of the Lord. || 4 || 1 ||
