Fifth Mehl:

ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਈਐ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰਾ ਮਤਿ ਦੇਇ ॥

naanak naam dhiaaeeai gur pooraa mat dee |

O Nanak, meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; this is the Teaching imparted by the Perfect Guru.

ਭਾਣੈ ਜਪ ਤਪ ਸੰਜਮੋ ਭਾਣੈ ਹੀ ਕਢਿ ਲੇਇ ॥

bhaanai jap tap sanjamo bhaanai hee kadt lee |

In the Lord's Will, they practice meditation, austerity and self-discipline; in the Lord's Will, they are released.

ਭਾਣੈ ਜੋਨਿ ਭਵਾਈਐ ਭਾਣੈ ਬਖਸ ਕਰੇਇ ॥

bhaanai jon bhavaaeeai bhaanai bakhas karee |

In the Lord's Will, they are made to wander in reincarnation; in the Lord's Will, they are forgiven.

ਭਾਣੈ ਦੁਖੁ ਸੁਖੁ ਭੋਗੀਐ ਭਾਣੈ ਕਰਮ ਕਰੇਇ ॥

bhaanai dukh sukh bhogeeai bhaanai karam karee |

In the Lord's Will, pain and pleasure are experienced; in the Lord's Will, actions are performed.

ਭਾਣੈ ਮਿਟੀ ਸਾਜਿ ਕੈ ਭਾਣੈ ਜੋਤਿ ਧਰੇਇ ॥

bhaanai mittee saaj kai bhaanai jot dharee |

In the Lord's Will, clay is fashioned into form; in the Lord's Will, His Light is infused into it.

ਭਾਣੈ ਭੋਗ ਭੋਗਾਇਦਾ ਭਾਣੈ ਮਨਹਿ ਕਰੇਇ ॥

bhaanai bhog bhogaaeidaa bhaanai maneh karee |

In the Lord's Will, enjoyments are enjoyed; in the Lord's Will, these enjoyments are denied.

ਭਾਣੈ ਨਰਕਿ ਸੁਰਗਿ ਅਉਤਾਰੇ ਭਾਣੈ ਧਰਣਿ ਪਰੇਇ ॥

bhaanai narak surag aautaare bhaanai dharan paree |

In the Lord's Will, they are incarnated in heaven and hell; in the Lord's Will, they fall to the ground.

ਭਾਣੈ ਹੀ ਜਿਸੁ ਭਗਤੀ ਲਾਏ ਨਾਨਕ ਵਿਰਲੇ ਹੇ ॥੨॥

bhaanai hee jis bhagatee laae naanak virale he |2|

In the Lord's Will, they are committed to His devotional worship and Praise; O Nanak, how rare are these! ||2||
