kaanarraa mahalaa 5 |

Kaanraa, Fifth Mehl:

ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕਹਨ ਮਲਨ ਦਹਨ ਲਹਨ ਗੁਰ ਮਿਲੇ ਆਨ ਨਹੀ ਉਪਾਉ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

prabh kehan malan dehan lehan gur mile aan nahee upaau |1| rahaau |

Speaking of God, filth and pollution are burnt away; This comes by meeting with the Guru, and not by any other efforts. ||1||Pause||

ਤਟਨ ਖਟਨ ਜਟਨ ਹੋਮਨ ਨਾਹੀ ਡੰਡਧਾਰ ਸੁਆਉ ॥੧॥

tattan khattan jattan homan naahee ddanddadhaar suaau |1|

Making pilgrimages to sacred rivers, observing the six rituals, wearing matted and tangled hair, performing fire sacrifices and carrying ceremonial walking sticks - none of these are of any use. ||1||

ਜਤਨ ਭਾਂਤਨ ਤਪਨ ਭ੍ਰਮਨ ਅਨਿਕ ਕਥਨ ਕਥਤੇ ਨਹੀ ਥਾਹ ਪਾਈ ਠਾਉ ॥

jatan bhaantan tapan bhraman anik kathan kathate nahee thaah paaee tthaau |

All sorts of efforts, austerities, wanderings and various speeches - none of these will lead you to find the Lord's Place.

ਸੋਧਿ ਸਗਰ ਸੋਧਨਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਭਜੁ ਨਾਉ ॥੨॥੨॥੩੯॥

sodh sagar sodhanaa sukh naanakaa bhaj naau |2|2|39|

I have considered all considerations, O Nanak, but peace comes only by vibrating and meditating on the Name. ||2||2||39||
