ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਅੰਦਰਿ ਸਹਸਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਹੈ ਆਪੈ ਸਿਰਿ ਧੰਧੈ ਮਾਰ ॥

andar sahasaa dukh hai aapai sir dhandhai maar |

Within the self is the pain of doubt; engrossed in worldly affairs, they are killing themselves.

ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਸੁਤੇ ਕਬਹਿ ਨ ਜਾਗਹਿ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹ ਪਿਆਰ ॥

doojai bhaae sute kabeh na jaageh maaeaa moh piaar |

Asleep in the love of duality, they never wake up; they are in love with, and attached to Maya.

ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਚੇਤਹਿ ਸਬਦੁ ਨ ਵੀਚਾਰਹਿ ਇਹੁ ਮਨਮੁਖ ਕਾ ਆਚਾਰੁ ॥

naam na cheteh sabad na veechaareh ihu manamukh kaa aachaar |

They do not think of the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and they do not contemplate the Word of the Shabad. This is the conduct of the self-willed manmukhs.

ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਆ ਜਨਮੁ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਗਵਾਇਆ ਨਾਨਕ ਜਮੁ ਮਾਰਿ ਕਰੇ ਖੁਆਰ ॥੨॥

har naam na paaeaa janam birathaa gavaaeaa naanak jam maar kare khuaar |2|

They do not obtain the Lord's Name, and they waste away their lives in vain; O Nanak, the Messenger of Death punishes and dishonors them. ||2||
