The forest fire has burnt down so much of the grass; how rare are the plants which have remained green. He is so All-powerful, that I cannot even describe Him; no one can chant His Praises. ||2||

In the store-room of the lamp-black, I did not turn black; my color remained immaculate and pure. The Guru has implanted the Maha Mantra, the Great Mantra, within my heart, and I have heard the wondrous Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||3||

My pride is gone, O friends and companions; my doubt is dispelled, and the Guru has united me with my Beloved. ||1||Pause||

Aasaa, Fifth Mehl: My mind is attached to the True Name. My dealings with other people are only superficial. ||1||

||1||Pause||
Outwardly, I am on good terms with all; but I remain detached, like the lotus upon the water. ||1||Pause||
|
|
|
|
|

||2||
By word of mouth, I talk with everyone; but I keep God clasped to my heart. ||2||

||...||
I may appear utterly terrible, but my mind is the dust of all men's feet. Servant Nanak has found the Perfect Guru.
