ਮਃ ੨ ॥

mahalaa 2 |

Second Mehl:

ਜੈਸਾ ਕਰੈ ਕਹਾਵੈ ਤੈਸਾ ਐਸੀ ਬਨੀ ਜਰੂਰਤਿ ॥

jaisaa karai kahaavai taisaa aisee banee jaroorat |

Mortals are known by their actions; this is the way it has to be.

ਹੋਵਹਿ ਲਿੰਙ ਝਿੰਙ ਨਹ ਹੋਵਹਿ ਐਸੀ ਕਹੀਐ ਸੂਰਤਿ ॥

hoveh ling jhing neh hoveh aisee kaheeai soorat |

They should show goodness, and not be deformed by their actions; this is how they are called beautiful.

ਜੋ ਓਸੁ ਇਛੇ ਸੋ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਏ ਤਾਂ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਹੀਐ ਮੂਰਤਿ ॥੨॥

jo os ichhe so fal paae taan naanak kaheeai moorat |2|

Whatever they desire, they shall receive; O Nanak, they become the very image of God. ||2||
