KAANRAA, FIFTH MEHL: In the Sanctuary of the Holy, I focus my consciousness on the Lord's Feet. When I was dreaming, I heard and saw only dream-objects. The True Guru has implanted the Mantra of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, within me. || 1 || Pause || Power, youth and wealth do not bring satisfaction; people chase after them again and again. I have found peace and tranquility, and all my thirsty desires have been quenched, singing His Glorious Praises. || 1 || Without understanding, they are like beasts, engrossed in doubt, emotional attachment and Maya. But in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, the noose of Death is cut, O Nanak, and one intuitively merges in celestial peace. || 2 || 10 ||| KAANRAA, FIFTH MEHL: Sing of the Lord's Feet within your heart. Meditate, meditate in constant remembrance on God, the Embodiment of soothing peace and cooling tranquility. || 1 || Pause || All your hopes shall be fulfilled, and the pain of millions of deaths and births shall be gone. Immerse yourself in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, and you shall obtain the benefits of giving charitable gifts, and all sorts of good deeds. Sorrow and suffering shall be erased, O Nanak, and you shall never again be devoured by death. || 2 || 11 ||
