ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਭੈ ਵਿਣੁ ਜੀਵੈ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਬਹੁਤੁ ਖੁਸੀਆ ਖੁਸੀ ਕਮਾਇ ॥

bhai vin jeevai bahut bahut khuseea khusee kamaae |

Without the fear of God, you may live very, very long, and savor the most enjoyable pleasures.

ਨਾਨਕ ਭੈ ਵਿਣੁ ਜੇ ਮਰੈ ਮੁਹਿ ਕਾਲੈ ਉਠਿ ਜਾਇ ॥੨॥

naanak bhai vin je marai muhi kaalai utth jaae |2|

O Nanak, if you die without the fear of God, you will arise and depart with a blackened face. ||2||
