ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੧ ॥

salok mahalaa 1 |

Salok, First Mehl:

ਨਦੀਆ ਹੋਵਹਿ ਧੇਣਵਾ ਸੁੰਮ ਹੋਵਹਿ ਦੁਧੁ ਘੀਉ ॥

nadeea hoveh dhenavaa sunm hoveh dudh gheeo |

If the rivers became cows, giving milk, and the spring water became milk and ghee;

ਸਗਲੀ ਧਰਤੀ ਸਕਰ ਹੋਵੈ ਖੁਸੀ ਕਰੇ ਨਿਤ ਜੀਉ ॥

sagalee dharatee sakar hovai khusee kare nit jeeo |

If all the earth became sugar, to continually excite the mind;

ਪਰਬਤੁ ਸੁਇਨਾ ਰੁਪਾ ਹੋਵੈ ਹੀਰੇ ਲਾਲ ਜੜਾਉ ॥

parabat sueinaa rupaa hovai heere laal jarraau |

if the mountains became gold and silver, studded with gems and jewels

ਭੀ ਤੂੰਹੈ ਸਾਲਾਹਣਾ ਆਖਣ ਲਹੈ ਨ ਚਾਉ ॥੧॥

bhee toonhai saalaahanaa aakhan lahai na chaau |1|

-even then, I would worship and adore You, and my longing to chant Your Praises would not decrease. ||1||
