Chhant:

ਭੈ ਸੰਕਟ ਕਾਟੇ ਨਾਰਾਇਣ ਦਇਆਲ ਜੀਉ ॥

bhai sankatt kaatte naaraaein deaal jeeo |

The Merciful Lord has eradicated my fears and troubles.

ਹਰਿ ਗੁਣ ਆਨੰਦ ਗਾਏ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਦੀਨਾ ਨਾਥ ਪ੍ਰਤਿਪਾਲ ਜੀਉ ॥

har gun aanand gaae prabh deenaa naath pratipaal jeeo |

In ecstasy, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord; God is the Cherisher, the Master of the meek.

ਪ੍ਰਤਿਪਾਲ ਅਚੁਤ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਏਕੋ ਤਿਸਹਿ ਸਿਉ ਰੰਗੁ ਲਾਗਾ ॥

pratipaal achut purakh eko tiseh siau rang laagaa |

The Cherishing Lord is imperishable, the One and only Primal Lord; I am imbued with His Love.

ਕਰ ਚਰਨ ਮਸਤਕੁ ਮੇਲਿ ਲੀਨੇ ਸਦਾ ਅਨਦਿਨੁ ਜਾਗਾ ॥

kar charan masatak mel leene sadaa anadin jaagaa |

When I placed my hands and forehead upon His Feet, He blended me with Himself; I became awake and aware forever, night and day.

ਜੀਉ ਪਿੰਡੁ ਗ੍ਰਿਹੁ ਥਾਨੁ ਤਿਸ ਕਾ ਤਨੁ ਜੋਬਨੁ ਧਨੁ ਮਾਲੁ ਜੀਉ ॥

jeeo pindd grihu thaan tis kaa tan joban dhan maal jeeo |

My soul, body, household and home belong to Him, along with my body, youth, wealth and property.

ਸਦ ਸਦਾ ਬਲਿ ਜਾਇ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਸਰਬ ਜੀਆ ਪ੍ਰਤਿਪਾਲ ਜੀਉ ॥੨॥

sad sadaa bal jaae naanak sarab jeea pratipaal jeeo |2|

Forever and ever, Nanak is a sacrifice to Him, who cherishes and nurtures all beings. ||2||
