Gauree, Fifth Mehl:

ਗਰਬੁ ਬਡੋ ਮੂਲੁ ਇਤਨੋ ॥

garab baddo mool itano |

Your pride is so great, but what about your origins?

ਰਹਨੁ ਨਹੀ ਗਹੁ ਕਿਤਨੋ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

rehan nahee gahu kitano |1| rahaau |

You cannot remain, no matter how much you try to hold on. ||1||Pause||

ਬੇਬਰਜਤ ਬੇਦ ਸੰਤਨਾ ਉਆਹੂ ਸਿਉ ਰੇ ਹਿਤਨੋ ॥

bebarajat bed santanaa uaahoo siau re hitano |

That which is forbidden by the Vedas and the Saints - with that, you are in love.

ਹਾਰ ਜੂਆਰ ਜੂਆ ਬਿਧੇ ਇੰਦ੍ਰੀ ਵਸਿ ਲੈ ਜਿਤਨੋ ॥੧॥

haar jooaar jooaa bidhe indree vas lai jitano |1|

Like the gambler losing the game of chance, you are held in the power of sensory desires. ||1||

ਹਰਨ ਭਰਨ ਸੰਪੂਰਨਾ ਚਰਨ ਕਮਲ ਰੰਗਿ ਰਿਤਨੋ ॥

haran bharan sanpooranaa charan kamal rang ritano |

The One who is All-powerful to empty out and fill up - you have no love for His Lotus Feet.

O Nanak, I have been saved, in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. I have been blessed by the Treasure of Mercy. ||2||10||148||
