ਮਃ ੨ ॥

mahalaa 2 |

Second Mehl:

ਨਕਿ ਨਥ ਖਸਮ ਹਥ ਕਿਰਤੁ ਧਕੇ ਦੇ ॥

nak nath khasam hath kirat dhake de |

The string through the nose is in the hands of the Lord Master; one's own actions drive him on.

ਜਹਾ ਦਾਣੇ ਤਹਾਂ ਖਾਣੇ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਸਚੁ ਹੇ ॥੨॥

jahaa daane tahaan khaane naanakaa sach he |2|

Wherever his food is, there he eats it; O Nanak, this is the Truth. ||2||
