-188I am Your servant; You are my Lord and Master. Nanak: my honor and glory are Yours, God. || 4 || 40 || 109 || GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: Those who have you on their side, O All-powerful Lord - no black stain can stick to them. || 1 || O Lord of wealth, those who place their hopes in You - nothing of the world can touch them at all. || 1 || Pause II Those whose hearts are filled with their Lord and Master - no anxiety can affect them. || 2 || Those, unto whom You give Your consolation, God - pain does not even approach them. || 3 || Says Nanak, I have found that Guru, who has shown me the Perfect, Supreme Lord God. || 4 || 41 || 110 | GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: This human body is so difficult to obtain; it is only obtained by great good fortune. Those who do not meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, are murderers of the soul. II 1 || Those who forget the Lord might just as well die. Without the Naam, of what use are their lives? || 1 || Pause | Eating, drinking, playing, laughing and showing off - what use are the ostentatious displays of the dead? || 2 || Those who do not listen to the Praises of the Lord of supreme bliss, are worse off than beasts, birds or creeping creatures. || 3 || Says Nanak, the GurMantra has been implanted within me; the Name alone is contained within my heart. 11 4 || 42 || 111 || GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: Whose mother is this? Whose father is this? They are relatives in name only - they are all false. || 1 11 Why are you screaming and shouting, you fool? By good destiny and the Lord's Order, you have come into the world. || 1 || Pause 11 There is the one dust, the one light, the one praanic wind. Why are you crying? For whom do you cry? || 2 || People weep and cry out, "Mine, mine!" This soul is not perishable. || 3 || Says Nanak, the Guru has opened my shutters; I am liberated, and my doubts have been dispelled. || 4 | 43 || 112 || GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: Those who seem to be great and powerful, are afflicted by the disease of anxiety. || 1 || Who is great by the greatness of Maya? They alone are great, who are lovingly attached to the Lord. || 1 || Pause II The landlord fights over his land each day. He shall have to leave it in the end, and yet his desire is still not satisfied. || 2 || Says Nanak, this is the essence of Truth: without the Lord's meditation, there is no salvation. || 3 || 44 || 113 || GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: Perfect is the path; perfect is the cleansing bath. Everything is perfect, if the Naam is in the heart. || 1 || One's honor remains perfect, when the Perfect Lord preserves it. His servant takes to the Sanctuary of the Supreme Lord God. || 1 || Pause 11 Perfect is the peace; perfect is the contentment. Perfect is the penance; perfect is the Raja Yoga, the Yoga of meditation and success. || 2 || On the Lord's Path, sinners are purified. Perfect is their glory; perfect is their humanity. || 3 || They dwell forever in the Presence of the Creator Lord. Says Nanak, my True Guru is perfect. Il 4 || 45 || 114 || GAUREE, FIFTH MEHL: Millions of sins are wiped away by the dust of the feet of the Saints.
