mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਅਭਿਆਗਤ ਏਹਿ ਨ ਆਖੀਅਨਿ ਜਿ ਪਰ ਘਰਿ ਭੋਜਨੁ ਕਰੇਨਿ ॥

abhiaagat ehi na aakheean ji par ghar bhojan karen |

They are not called renunciates, who take food in the homes of others.

ਉਦਰੈ ਕਾਰਣਿ ਆਪਣੇ ਬਹਲੇ ਭੇਖ ਕਰੇਨਿ ॥

audarai kaaran aapane bahale bhekh karen |

For the sake of their bellies, they wear various religious robes.

ਅਭਿਆਗਤ ਸੇਈ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਜਿ ਆਤਮ ਗਉਣੁ ਕਰੇਨਿ ॥

abhiaagat seee naanakaa ji aatam gaun karen |

They alone are renunciates, O Nanak, who enter into their own souls.

ਭਾਲਿ ਲਹਨਿ ਸਹੁ ਆਪਣਾ ਨਿਜ ਘਰਿ ਰਹਣੁ ਕਰੇਨਿ ॥੨॥

bhaal lehan sahu aapanaa nij ghar rehan karen |2|

They seek and find their Husband Lord; they dwell within the home of their own inner self. ||2||
