NAT, FOURTH MEHL: O my mind, in this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Kirtan of the Lord’s Praises is worthy and commendable. When the Merciful Lord God shows kindness and compassion, then one falls at the feet of the True Guru, and meditates on the Lord. ||1|| Pause|| O my Lord and Master, You are great, inaccessible and unfathomable; all meditate on You, O Beautiful Lord. Those whom You view with Your Great Eye of Grace, meditate on You, Lord, and become Gurmukh. ||1|| The expanse of this creation is Your work, O God, my Lord and Master, Life of the entire universe, united with all. Countless waves rise up from the water, and then they merge into the water again. ||2|| You alone, God, know whatever You do. O Lord, I do not know. I am Your child; please enshrine Your Praises within my heart, God, so that I may remember You in meditation. ||3|| You are the treasure of water, O Lord, the Maansarovar Lake. Whoever serves You receives all fruitful rewards. Servant Nanak longs for the Lord, Har, Har, Har, Har; bless him, Lord, with Your Mercy. ||4||6||

NAT NAARAAYAN, FOURTH MEHL, PARTAAL: ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU: O my mind, serve the Lord, and receive the fruits of your rewards. Receive the dust of the Guru’s feet.

The Lord shall bless you with His Glance of Grace, and you shall be enraptured. ||1|| Pause|| The Lord Himself embellishes His household. The Lord’s Mansion of Love is studded with countless jewels, the jewels of the Beloved Lord. The Lord Himself has granted His Grace, and He has come into my home.The Guru is my advocate before the Lord. Gazing upon the Lord, I have become blissful, blissful, blissful. ||1|| From the Guru, I received news of the Lord’s arrival. My mind and body became ecstatic and blissful, hearing of the arrival of the Lord, my Beloved Love, my Lord. Servant Nanak has met with the Lord, Har, Har; he is intoxicated, enraptured, enraptured. ||2||1||7||

Meet with the Lord, according to your pre-ordained destiny. ||1|| Pause|| In this Dark Age of Kali Yuga, the Kirtan of the Lord’s Praise is lofty and exalted. Following the Guru’s Teachings, the intellect dwells on the sermon of the Lord. I am a sacrifice to that person who listens and believes. ||1|| One who tastes the sublime essence of the Unspoken Speech of the Lord — all his hunger is satisfied. Servant Nanak listens to the sermon of the Lord, and is satisfied; chanting the Lord’s Name, Har, Har, Har, he has become like the Lord. ||2||2||8||

Cast out deception from within yourself, O my Gursikhs, and without deception, serve the Lord. You shall be enraptured, enraptured, enraptured. ||1|| Those Sikhs of the Guru, who realize that my Lord God is with them, are pleasing to my Lord God. The Lord God has blessed servant Nanak with understanding; seeing his Lord hear at hand, his is enraptured, enraptured, enraptured, enraptured. ||2||3||9||
