SOOHEE, FIFTH MEHL:

Blessed is that soul-bride, who realizes God. She obeys the Hukam of His Order, and abandons her self-conceit. Imbued with her Beloved, she celebrates in delight. || 1 ||

Listen, O my companions – these are the signs on the Path to meet God. Dedicate your mind and body to Him; stop living to please others. || 1 ||

Pause ||

One soul-bride counsels another, to do only that which pleases God. Such a soul-bride merges into the Being of God. || 2 ||

One who is in the grip of pride does not obtain the Mansion of the Lord’s Presence. She regrets and repents, when her life-night passes away. The unfortunate self-willed manmukhs suffer in pain. || 3 ||

I pray to God, but I think that He is far away. God is imperishable and eternal; He is pervading and permeating everywhere. Servant Nanak sings of Him; I see Him Ever-present everywhere. || 4 || 3 ||
