ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੩ ॥

salok mahalaa 3 |

Salok, Third Mehl:

ਬਿਨੁ ਕਰਮੈ ਨਾਉ ਨ ਪਾਈਐ ਪੂਰੈ ਕਰਮਿ ਪਾਇਆ ਜਾਇ ॥

bin karamai naau na paaeeai poorai karam paaeaa jaae |

Without the karma of good actions, the Name is not obtained; it can be obtained only by perfect good karma.

ਨਾਨਕ ਨਦਰਿ ਕਰੇ ਜੇ ਆਪਣੀ ਤਾ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥੧॥

naanak nadar kare je aapanee taa guramat mel milaae |1|

O Nanak, if the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, then under Guru's Instruction, one is united in His Union. ||1||
