The Lord and Master Himself imparts understanding; the Lord Himself inspires us to speak. || 1 || The Lord Himself directs the evolution of the world of the five elements; He Himself infuses the five senses into it. O servant Nanak, the Lord Himself unites us with the True Guru; He Himself resolves the conflicts. || 2 || 3 || BAIRAAREE, FOURTH MEHL: Chant the Name of the Lord, O mind, and you shall be emancipated. The Lord shall destroy all the sins of millions upon millions of incarnations, and carry you across the terrifying world-ocean. || 1 || Pause || In the body-village, the Lord Master abides; the Lord is without fear, without vengeance, and without form. The Lord is dwelling near at hand, but He cannot be seen. By the Guru’s Teachings, the Lord is obtained. || 1 || The Lord Himself is the banker, the jeweller, the jewel, the gem; the Lord Himself created the entire expanse of the creation. O Nanak, one who is blessed by the Lord’s Kind Mercy, trades in the Lord’s Name; He alone is the true banker, the true trader. || 2 || 4 || BAIRAAREE, FOURTH MEHL: Meditate, O mind, on the immaculate, formless Lord. Forever and ever, meditate on the Lord, the Giver of peace; He has no end or limitation. || 1 || Pause || In the fiery pit of the womb, when you were hanging upside-down, the Lord absorbed You in His Love, and preserved You. So serve such a Lord, O my mind; the Lord shall deliver you in the end. || 1 || Bow down in reverence to that humble being, within whose heart the Lord, Har, Har, abides. By the Lord’s Kind Mercy, O Nanak, one obtains the Lord’s meditation, and the support of the Naam. || 2 || 5 || BAIRAAREE, FOURTH MEHL: O my mind, chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har; meditate on it continually. You shall obtain the fruits of your heart’s desires, and pain shall never touch you again. || 1 || Pause || That is chanting, that is deep meditation and austerity, that is fasting and worship, which inspires love for the Lord. Without the Lord’s Love, every other love is false; in an instant, it is all forgotten. || 1 || You are infinite, the Master of all power; Your value cannot be described at all. Nanak has come to Your Sanctuary, O Dear Lord; as it pleases You, save him. || 2 || 6 ||

RAAG BAIRAAREE, FIFTH MEHL, FIRST HOUSE:

ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD.
BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU:

Meeting with the humble Saints, sing the Praises of the Lord. The pains of millions of incarnations shall be eradicated. || 1 || Pause || Whatever your mind desires, that you shall obtain. By His Kind Mercy, the Lord blesses us with His Name. || 1 || All happiness and greatness are in the Lord’s Name. By Guru’s Grace, Nanak has gained this understanding. || 2 || 1 || 7 ||
