ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਬਾਬੀਹਾ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕਰੇ ਕਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਦੇਹੁ ਜੀਅ ਦਾਨ ॥

baabeehaa benatee kare kar kirapaa dehu jeea daan |

The rainbird prays: O Lord, grant Your Grace, and bless me with the gift of the life of the soul.

ਜਲ ਬਿਨੁ ਪਿਆਸ ਨ ਊਤਰੈ ਛੁਟਕਿ ਜਾਂਹਿ ਮੇਰੇ ਪ੍ਰਾਨ ॥

jal bin piaas na aootarai chhuttak jaanhi mere praan |

Without the water, my thirst is not quenched, and my breath of life is ended and gone.

ਤੂ ਸੁਖਦਾਤਾ ਬੇਅੰਤੁ ਹੈ ਗੁਣਦਾਤਾ ਨੇਧਾਨੁ ॥

too sukhadaataa beant hai gunadaataa nedhaan |

You are the Giver of peace, O Infinite Lord God; You are the Giver of the treasure of virtue.

ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਬਖਸਿ ਲਏ ਅੰਤਿ ਬੇਲੀ ਹੋਇ ਭਗਵਾਨੁ ॥੨॥

naanak guramukh bakhas le ant belee hoe bhagavaan |2|

O Nanak, the Gurmukh is forgiven; in the end, the Lord God shall be your only friend. ||2||
