Pauree:

ਯਾ ਜੁਗ ਮਹਿ ਏਕਹਿ ਕਉ ਆਇਆ ॥

yaa jug meh ekeh kau aaeaa |

They have come into this world to meditate on the One Lord.

ਜਨਮਤ ਮੋਹਿਓ ਮੋਹਨੀ ਮਾਇਆ ॥

janamat mohio mohanee maaeaa |

But ever since their birth, they have been enticed by the fascination of Maya.

ਗਰਭ ਕੁੰਟ ਮਹਿ ਉਰਧ ਤਪ ਕਰਤੇ ॥

garabh kuntt meh uradh tap karate |

Upside-down in the chamber of the womb, they performed intense meditation.

ਸਾਸਿ ਸਾਸਿ ਸਿਮਰਤ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਰਹਤੇ ॥

saas saas simarat prabh rahate |

They remembered God in meditation with each and every breath.

ਉਰਝਿ ਪਰੇ ਜੋ ਛੋਡਿ ਛਡਾਨਾ ॥

aurajh pare jo chhodd chhaddaanaa |

But now, they are entangled in things which they must leave behind.

ਦੇਵਨਹਾਰੁ ਮਨਹਿ ਬਿਸਰਾਨਾ ॥

devanahaar maneh bisaraanaa |

They forget the Great Giver from their minds.

ਧਾਰਹੁ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਜਿਸਹਿ ਗੁਸਾਈ ॥

dhaarahu kirapaa jiseh gusaaee |

O Nanak, those upon whom the Lord showers His Mercy,

ਇਤ ਉਤ ਨਾਨਕ ਤਿਸੁ ਬਿਸਰਹੁ ਨਾਹੀ ॥੬॥

eit ut naanak tis bisarahu naahee |6|

do not forget Him, here or hereafter. ||6||
