Siree Raag, Fifth Mehl:

ਤਿਚਰੁ ਵਸਹਿ ਸੁਹੇਲੜੀ ਜਿਚਰੁ ਸਾਥੀ ਨਾਲਿ ॥

tichar vaseh suhelarree jichar saathee naal |

As long as the soul-companion is with the body, it dwells in happiness.

ਜਾ ਸਾਥੀ ਉਠੀ ਚਲਿਆ ਤਾ ਧਨ ਖਾਕੂ ਰਾਲਿ ॥੧॥

jaa saathee utthee chaliaa taa dhan khaakoo raal |1|

But when the companion arises and departs, then the body-bride mingles with dust. ||1||

ਮਨਿ ਬੈਰਾਗੁ ਭਇਆ ਦਰਸਨੁ ਦੇਖਣੈ ਕਾ ਚਾਉ ॥

man bairaag bheaa darasan dekhanai kaa chaau |

My mind has become detached from the world; it longs to see the Vision of God's Darshan.

ਧੰਨੁ ਸੁ ਤੇਰਾ ਥਾਨੁ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

dhan su teraa thaan |1| rahaau |

Blessed is Your Place. ||1||Pause||

ਜਿਚਰੁ ਵਸਿਆ ਕੰਤੁ ਘਰਿ ਜੀਉ ਜੀਉ ਸਭਿ ਕਹਾਤਿ ॥

jichar vasiaa kant ghar jeeo jeeo sabh kahaat |

As long as the soul-husband dwells in the body-house, everyone greets you with respect.

ਜਾ ਉਠੀ ਚਲਸੀ ਕੰਤੜਾ ਤਾ ਕੋਇ ਨ ਪੁਛੈ ਤੇਰੀ ਬਾਤ ॥੨॥

jaa utthee chalasee kantarraa taa koe na puchhai teree baat |2|

But when the soul-husband arises and departs, then no one cares for you at all. ||2||

ਪੇਈਅੜੈ ਸਹੁ ਸੇਵਿ ਤੂੰ ਸਾਹੁਰੜੈ ਸੁਖਿ ਵਸੁ ॥

peeearrai sahu sev toon saahurarrai sukh vas |

In this world of your parents' home, serve your Husband Lord; in the world beyond, in your in-laws' home, you shall dwell in peace.

ਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਿ ਚਜੁ ਅਚਾਰੁ ਸਿਖੁ ਤੁਧੁ ਕਦੇ ਨ ਲਗੈ ਦੁਖੁ ॥੩॥

gur mil chaj achaar sikh tudh kade na lagai dukh |3|

Meeting with the Guru, be a sincere student of proper conduct, and suffering shall never touch you. ||3||

ਸਭਨਾ ਸਾਹੁਰੈ ਵੰਞਣਾ ਸਭਿ ਮੁਕਲਾਵਣਹਾਰ ॥

sabhanaa saahurai vanyanaa sabh mukalaavanahaar |

Everyone shall go to their Husband Lord. Everyone shall be given their ceremonial send-off after their marriage.

ਨਾਨਕ ਧੰਨੁ ਸੋਹਾਗਣੀ ਜਿਨ ਸਹ ਨਾਲਿ ਪਿਆਰੁ ॥੪॥੨੩॥੯੩॥

naanak dhan sohaaganee jin seh naal piaar |4|23|93|

O Nanak, blessed are the happy soul-brides, who are in love with their Husband Lord. ||4||23||93||
