ੴ

Bilaaval, Fifth Mehl:

One who forgets God is filthy, poor and low.

The fool does not understand the Creator Lord; instead, he thinks that he himself is the doer. ||1||

Pain comes, when one forgets Him. Peace comes when one remembers God.

This is the way the Saints are in bliss - they continually sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||Pause||

The high, He makes low, and the low, he elevates in an instant.

The value of the glory of our Lord and Master cannot be estimated. ||2||

While he gazes upon beautiful dramas and plays, the day of his departure dawns.

The dream becomes the dream, and his actions do not go along with him. ||3||

God is All-powerful, the Cause of causes; I seek Your Sanctuary.

Day and night, Nanak meditates on the Lord; forever and ever he is a sacrifice. ||4||20||50||
