ਸਲੋਕ ਮਃ ੩ ॥

salok mahalaa 3 |

Salok, Third Mehl:

ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਬਿਲਾਵਲੁ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਥਾਇ ਨ ਪਾਇ ॥

doojai bhaae bilaaval na hovee manamukh thaae na paae |

In the love of duality, the happiness of Bilaaval does not come; the self-willed manmukh finds no place of rest.

ਪਾਖੰਡਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਆ ਜਾਇ ॥

paakhandd bhagat na hovee paarabraham na paaeaa jaae |

Through hypocrisy, devotional worship does not come, and the Supreme Lord God is not found.

ਮਨਹਠਿ ਕਰਮ ਕਮਾਵਣੇ ਥਾਇ ਨ ਕੋਈ ਪਾਇ ॥

manahatth karam kamaavane thaae na koee paae |

By stubborn-mindedly performing religious rituals, no one obtains the approval of the Lord.

ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਆਪੁ ਬੀਚਾਰੀਐ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਇ ॥

naanak guramukh aap beechaareeai vichahu aap gavaae |

O Nanak, the Gurmukh understands himself, and eradicates self-conceit from within.

ਆਪੇ ਆਪਿ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਹੈ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਵਸਿਆ ਮਨਿ ਆਇ ॥

aape aap paarabraham hai paarabraham vasiaa man aae |

He Himself is the Supreme Lord God; the Supreme Lord God comes to dwell in his mind.

ਜੰਮਣੁ ਮਰਣਾ ਕਟਿਆ ਜੋਤੀ ਜੋਤਿ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥੧॥

jaman maranaa kattiaa jotee jot milaae |1|

Birth and death are erased, and his light blends with the Light. ||1||
