God is Unfathomable, Indescribable and Ineffable:- [1. p. 612].
SORAT’H, FIFTH MEHL, SECOND HOUSE, CHAU-PADAS:
ONE UNIVERSAL CREATOR GOD. Known BY THE GRACE OF THE TRUE GURU:
The One God is our father; we are the children of the One God. You are our Guru.
Listen, friends: my soul is a sacrifice, a sacrifice to You; O Lord, reveal to me the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan. || 1 ||
Listen, friends: I am a sacrifice to the dust of Your feet. This mind is yours, O Siblings of Destiny ! || Pause ||
I wash your feet, I massage and clean them; I give this mind to you. Listen, friends: I have come to Your Sanctuary; teach me, that I might unite with God. || 2 ||
Do not be proud; seek His Sanctuary, and accept as good all that He does. Listen, friends: dedicate your soul, body and your whole being to Him; thus you shall receive the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. || 3 ||
He has shown mercy to me, by the Grace of the Saints; the Lord’s Naam is sweet to me.
The Guru has shown mercy to servant Nanak;
I see the Lord without any Ancestry,
and immaculate everywhere. || 4 || 1 || 12 ||
SORAT’H, FIFTH MEHL:
God is the Lord and Master of millions of universes; He is the Giver of all beings.
He ever cherishes and cares for all beings, but the fool does not appreciate any of His virtues. || 1 ||
I do not know how to worship the Lord in adoration.
I can only repeat, “Lord, Lord, Guru, Guru.” O Dear Lord ! I am known by the name of Lord’s slave. || Pause ||
The Compassionate Lord is Merciful to the meek, the ocean of peace; He fills all hearts.
He sees, hears, and is always with me; but I am a fool, and I think that He is far away. || 2 ||
The Lord is limitless, but I can only describe Him within my limitations; what do I know, about what He is like?
I offer my prayer to my True Guru; I am so foolish — please, teach me! || 3 ||
I am just a fool, but millions of sinners just like me have been saved.
Those who have heard, and seen Guru Nanak, do not descend into the womb of the mother again. || 4 || 2 || 13 ||
