ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੪ ॥

salok mahalaa 4 |

Salok, Fourth Mehl:

ਇਹੁ ਮਨੂਆ ਦ੍ਰਿੜੁ ਕਰਿ ਰਖੀਐ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਲਾਈਐ ਚਿਤੁ ॥

eihu manooaa drirr kar rakheeai guramukh laaeeai chit |

Hold this mind steady and stable; become Gurmukh and focus your consciousness.

ਕਿਉ ਸਾਸਿ ਗਿਰਾਸਿ ਵਿਸਾਰੀਐ ਬਹਦਿਆ ਉਠਦਿਆ ਨਿਤ ॥

kiau saas giraas visaareeai bahadiaa utthadiaa nit |

How could you ever forget Him, with each breath and morsel of food, sitting down or standing up?

ਮਰਣ ਜੀਵਣ ਕੀ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਗਈ ਇਹੁ ਜੀਅੜਾ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਵਸਿ ॥

maran jeevan kee chintaa gee ihu jeearraa har prabh vas |

My anxiety about birth and death has ended; this soul is under the control of the Lord God.

ਜਿਉ ਭਾਵੈ ਤਿਉ ਰਖੁ ਤੂ ਜਨ ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਬਖਸਿ ॥੧॥

jiau bhaavai tiau rakh too jan naanak naam bakhas |1|

If it pleases You, then save servant Nanak, and bless him with Your Name. ||1||
