ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੩ ॥

salok mahalaa 3 |

Salok, Third Mehl:

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸੇਵ ਨ ਕੀਨੀਆ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਨ ਲਗੋ ਪਿਆਰੁ ॥

guramukh sev na keeneea har naam na lago piaar |

One who does not serve the Guru as Gurmukh, who does not love the Lord's Name,

ਸਬਦੈ ਸਾਦੁ ਨ ਆਇਓ ਮਰਿ ਜਨਮੈ ਵਾਰੋ ਵਾਰ ॥

sabadai saad na aaeo mar janamai vaaro vaar |

and who does not savor the taste of the Shabad, shall die, and be reborn, over and over again.

ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਅੰਧੁ ਨ ਚੇਤਈ ਕਿਤੁ ਆਇਆ ਸੈਸਾਰਿ ॥

manamukh andh na chetee kit aaeaa saisaar |

The blind, self-willed manmukh does not think of the Lord; why did he even come into the world?

ਨਾਨਕ ਜਿਨ ਕਉ ਨਦਰਿ ਕਰੇ ਸੇ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਲੰਘੇ ਪਾਰਿ ॥੧॥

naanak jin kau nadar kare se guramukh langhe paar |1|

O Nanak, that Gurmukh, upon whom the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, crosses over the world-ocean. ||1||
