ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਇਕੋ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਜਾਗਤਾ ਹੋਰੁ ਜਗੁ ਸੂਤਾ ਮੋਹਿ ਪਿਆਸਿ ॥

eiko satigur jaagataa hor jag sootaa mohi piaas |

Only the Guru is awake; the rest of the world is asleep in emotional attachment and desire.

ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਸੇਵਨਿ ਜਾਗੰਨਿ ਸੇ ਜੋ ਰਤੇ ਸਚਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਗੁਣਤਾਸਿ ॥

satigur sevan jaagan se jo rate sach naam gunataas |

Those who serve the True Guru and remain wakeful, are imbued with the True Name, the treasure of virtue.

ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਅੰਧ ਨ ਚੇਤਨੀ ਜਨਮਿ ਮਰਿ ਹੋਹਿ ਬਿਨਾਸਿ ॥

manamukh andh na chetanee janam mar hohi binaas |

The blind, self-willed manmukhs do not think of the Lord; they are ruined through birth and death.

ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਤਿਨੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਇਆ ਜਿਨ ਕੰਉ ਧੁਰਿ ਪੂਰਬਿ ਲਿਖਿਆਸਿ ॥੨॥

naanak guramukh tinee naam dhiaaeaa jin knau dhur poorab likhiaas |2|

O Nanak, the Gurmukhs meditate on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; this is their destiny, pre-ordained by the Primal Lord God. ||2||
