BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU: Remembering, remembering, remembering Him in meditation, I find peace; with each and every breath, I dwell upon Him. In this world, and in the world beyond, He is with me, as my help and support; wherever I go, He protects me. ||1|| The Guru’s Word abides with my soul. It does not sink in water; thieves cannot steal it, and fire cannot burn it. ||1|| Pause|| It is like wealth to the poor, a cane for the blind, and mother’s milk for the infant.

DHANAASAREE, FIFTH MEHL: The Lord of the Universe has become kind and merciful; His Ambrosial Nectar permeates my heart. The nine treasures, riches and the miraculous spiritual powers of the Siddhas cling to the feet of the Lord’s humble servant. ||1|| The Saints are in ecstasy everywhere. Within the home, and outside as well, the Lord and Master of His devotees is totally pervading and permeating everywhere. ||1|| Pause|| No one can equal one who has the Lord of the Universe on his side. The fear of the Messenger of Death is eradicated, remembering Him in meditation; Nanak meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord. ||2||2||33||

DHANAASAREE, FIFTH MEHL: The rich man gazes upon his riches, and is proud of himself; the landlord takes pride in his lands. The king believes that the whole kingdom belongs to him; in the same way, the humble servant of the Lord looks upon the support of his Lord and Master. ||1|| When one considers the Lord to be his only support, then the Lord uses His power to help him; this power cannot be defeated. ||1|| Pause|| Renouncing all others, I have sought the Support of the One Lord; I have come to Him, pleading, “Save me, save me!” By the kindness and the Grace of the Saints, my mind has been purified; Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||2||3||34||

DHANAASAREE, FIFTH MEHL: He alone is called a warrior, who is attached to the Lord’s Love in this age. Through the Perfect True Guru, he conquers his own soul, and then everything comes under his control. ||1|| Sing the Praises of the Lord and Master, with the love of your soul. Those who seek His Sanctuary, and meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, are blended with the Lord in celestial peace. ||1|| Pause|| The feet of the Lord’s humble servant abide in my heart; with them, my body is made pure. O treasure of mercy, please bless Nanak with the dust of the feet of Your humble servants; this alone brings peace. ||2||4||35||
