PRABHAATEE, FOURTH MEHL
PRABHAATEE, FOURTH MEHL: The Lord God showered me with His Mercy for an instant; I sing His Glorious Praises with joyous love and delight. Both the singer and the listener are liberated, when, as Gurmukh, they drink in the Lord’s Name, even for an instant. ||1|| The Sublime Essence of the Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is enshrined within my mind. As Gurmukh, I have obtained the cooling, soothing Water of the Naam. I eagerly drink in the sublime essence of the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. ||1|| Pause|| Those whose hearts are imbued with the Love of the Lord have the mark of radiant purity upon their foreheads. The Glory of the Lord’s humble servant is manifest throughout the world, like the moon among the stars. ||2|| Those whose hearts are not filled with the Lord’s Name — all their affairs are worthless and insipid. They may adorn and decorate their bodies, but without the Naam, they look like their noses have been cut off. ||3|| The Sovereign Lord permeates each and every heart; the One Lord is all-pervading everywhere. The Lord has showered His Mercy upon servant Nanak; through the Word of the Guru’s Teachings, I have meditated on the Lord in an instant. ||4||3||
