ੴ

Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehl:

The desires of the greatest of the great kings and landlords cannot be satisfied.

They remain engrossed in Maya, intoxicated with the pleasures of their wealth; their eyes see nothing else at all. ||1||

No one has ever found satisfaction in sin and corruption.

The flame is not satisfied by more fuel; how can one be satisfied without the Lord? ||Pause||

Day after day, he eats his meals with many different foods, but his hunger is not eradicated.

He runs around like a dog, searching in the four directions. ||2||

The lustful, lecherous man desires many women, and he never stops peeking into the homes of others.

Day after day, he commits adultery again and again, and then he regrets his actions; he wastes away in misery and greed. ||3||

The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is incomparable and priceless; it is the treasure of Ambrosial Nectar.

The Saints abide in peace, poise and bliss; O Nanak, through the Guru, this is known. ||4||6||
