ਪਉੜੀ ੨

paurree 2

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਪਾਰਸੁ ਹੋਇ ਪੂਜ ਕਰਾਇਆ ।

guramukh paaras hoe pooj karaaeaa |

The Gurmukh (Guru Nanak) by becoming the philosopher's stone made all the disciples venerable.

ਅਸਟ ਧਾਤੁ ਇਕੁ ਧਾਤੁ ਜੋਤਿ ਜਗਾਇਆ ।

asatt dhaat ik dhaat jot jagaaeaa |

He illumined the people of all the varnas as the philosopher's stone converts all the right metals into gold.

ਬਾਵਨ ਚੰਦਨੁ ਹੋਇ ਬਿਰਖੁ ਬੋਹਾਇਆ ।

baavan chandan hoe birakh bohaaeaa |

By becoming sandalwood he made all the trees fragrant.

ਗੁਰਸਿਖੁ ਸਿਖੁ ਗੁਰ ਹੋਇ ਅਚਰਜੁ ਦਿਖਾਇਆ ।

gurasikh sikh gur hoe acharaj dikhaaeaa |

He accomplished the wonder of making disciple the Guru.

ਜੋਤੀ ਜੋਤਿ ਜਗਾਇ ਦੀਪੁ ਦੀਪਾਇਆ ।

jotee jot jagaae deep deepaaeaa |

Extended his light similarly as a lamp is lit by another lamp.

ਨੀਰੈ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਨੀਰੁ ਮਿਲੈ ਮਿਲਾਇਆ ।੨।

neerai andar neer milai milaaeaa |2|

As the water mixing with water becomes one, likewise deleting ego, the Sikh merges into the Guru.
