ਮਃ ੧ ॥

mahalaa 1 |

First Mehl:

ਜਾ ਤੂੰ ਵਡਾ ਸਭਿ ਵਡਿਆਂਈਆ ਚੰਗੈ ਚੰਗਾ ਹੋਈ ॥

jaa toon vaddaa sabh vaddiaaneea changai changaa hoee |

You are so Great-all Greatness flows from You. You are So Good-Goodness radiates from You.

ਜਾ ਤੂੰ ਸਚਾ ਤਾ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਸਚਾ ਕੂੜਾ ਕੋਇ ਨ ਕੋਈ ॥

jaa toon sachaa taa sabh ko sachaa koorraa koe na koee |

You are True-all that flows from You is True. Nothing at all is false.

ਆਖਣੁ ਵੇਖਣੁ ਬੋਲਣੁ ਚਲਣੁ ਜੀਵਣੁ ਮਰਣਾ ਧਾਤੁ ॥

aakhan vekhan bolan chalan jeevan maranaa dhaat |

Talking, seeing, speaking, walking, living and dying-all these are transitory.

ਹੁਕਮੁ ਸਾਜਿ ਹੁਕਮੈ ਵਿਚਿ ਰਖੈ ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚਾ ਆਪਿ ॥੨॥

hukam saaj hukamai vich rakhai naanak sachaa aap |2|

By the Hukam of His Command, He creates, and in His Command, He keeps us. O Nanak, He Himself is True. ||2||
