ੴ

Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehl:

People try to deceive others, but the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts, knows everything.

They commit sins, and then deny them, while they pretend to be in Nirvaanaa. ||1||

They believe that You are far away, but You, O God, are near at hand.

Looking around, this way and that, the greedy people come and go. ||Pause||

As long as the doubts of the mind are not removed, liberation is not found.

Says Nanak, he alone is a Saint, a devotee, and a humble servant of the Lord, to whom the Lord and Master is merciful. ||2||5||36||
