ਆਸਾ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥

Aasaa, Fifth Mahalaa:

While standing up, and sitting down, and even while asleep, meditate on the Lord.

Walking on the Way, sing the Praises of the Lord. ||1||

With your ears, listen to the Ambrosial Sermon.

Listening to it, your mind shall be filled with bliss, and the troubles and diseases of your mind shall all depart. ||1||Pause||

While you work at your job, on the road and at the beach, meditate and chant.

By Guru's Grace, drink in the Ambrosial Essence of the Lord. ||2||

The humble being who sings the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, day and night,

does not have to go with the Messenger of Death. ||3||

One who does not forget the Lord, twenty-four hours a day, is emancipated;

O Nanak, I fall at his feet. ||4||10||61||
