ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਕਪਟੁ ਮਨਮੁਖ ਅਗਿਆਨੀ ਰਸਨਾ ਝੂਠੁ ਬੋਲਾਇ ॥

antar kapatt manamukh agiaanee rasanaa jhootth bolaae |

Within the ignorant self-willed manmukh is deception; with his tongue, he speaks lies.

ਕਪਟਿ ਕੀਤੈ ਹਰਿ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੀਜੈ ਨਿਤ ਵੇਖੈ ਸੁਣੈ ਸੁਭਾਇ ॥

kapatt keetai har purakh na bheejai nit vekhai sunai subhaae |

Practicing deception, he does not please the Lord God, who always sees and hears with natural ease.

ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਜਾਇ ਜਗੁ ਪਰਬੋਧੈ ਬਿਖੁ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹ ਸੁਆਇ ॥

doojai bhaae jaae jag parabodhai bikh maaeaa moh suaae |

In the love of duality, he goes to instruct the world, but he is engrossed in the poison of Maya and attachment to pleasure.

ਇਤੁ ਕਮਾਣੈ ਸਦਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਪਾਵੈ ਜੰਮੈ ਮਰੈ ਫਿਰਿ ਆਵੈ ਜਾਇ ॥

eit kamaanai sadaa dukh paavai jamai marai fir aavai jaae |

By doing so, he suffers in constant pain; he is born and then dies, and comes and goes again and again.

ਸਹਸਾ ਮੂਲਿ ਨ ਚੁਕਈ ਵਿਚਿ ਵਿਸਟਾ ਪਚੈ ਪਚਾਇ ॥

sahasaa mool na chukee vich visattaa pachai pachaae |

His doubts do not leave him at all, and he rots away in manure.

ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰੇ ਮੇਰਾ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਤਿਸੁ ਗੁਰ ਕੀ ਸਿਖ ਸੁਣਾਇ ॥

jis no kripaa kare meraa suaamee tis gur kee sikh sunaae |

One, unto whom my Lord Master shows His Mercy, listens to the Guru's Teachings.

ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਵੈ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੋ ਗਾਵੈ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੋ ਅੰਤਿ ਛਡਾਇ ॥੨॥

har naam dhiaavai har naamo gaavai har naamo ant chhaddaae |2|

He meditates on the Lord's Name, and sings the Lord's Name; in the end, the Lord's Name will deliver him. ||2||
