Sorat'h, Third Mehl, Dho-Thukay:
ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਿਐ ਉਲਟੀ ਭਈ ਭਾਈ ਜੀਵਤ ਮਰੈ ਤਾ ਬੂਝ ਪਾਇ ॥
satigur miliai ulattee bhee bhaaee jeevat marai taa boojh paae |
Meeting the True Guru, one turns away from the world, O Siblings of Destiny; when he remains dead while yet alive, he obtains true understanding.
ਸੋ ਗੁਰੂ ਸੋ ਸਿਖੁ ਹੈ ਭਾਈ ਜਿਸੁ ਜੋਤੀ ਜੋਤਿ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥੧॥
so guroo so sikh hai bhaaee jis jotee jot milaae |1|
He alone is the Guru, and he alone is a Sikh, O Siblings of Destiny, whose light merges in the Light. ||1||
ਮਨ ਰੇ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਸੇਤੀ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਇ ॥
man re har har setee liv laae |
O my mind, be lovingly attuned to the Name of the Lord, Har, Har.
ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਜਪਿ ਮੀਠਾ ਲਾਗੈ ਭਾਈ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਪਾਏ ਹਰਿ ਥਾਇ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
man har jap meetthaa laagai bhaaee guramukh paae har thaae | rahaau |
Chanting the Name of the Lord, it seems so sweet to the mind, O Siblings of Destiny; the Gurmukhs obtain a place in the Court of the Lord. ||Pause||
ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਨ ਊਪਜੈ ਭਾਈ ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ॥
bin gur preet na aoopajai bhaaee manamukh doojai bhaae |
Without the Guru, love for the Lord does not well up, O Siblings of Destiny; the self-willed manmukhs are engrossed in the love of duality.
ਤੁਹ ਕੁਟਹਿ ਮਨਮੁਖ ਕਰਮ ਕਰਹਿ ਭਾਈ ਪਲੈ ਕਿਛੂ ਨ ਪਾਇ ॥੨॥
tuh kutteh manamukh karam kareh bhaaee palai kichhoo na paae |2|
Actions performed by the manmukh are like the threshing of the chaff - they obtain nothing for their efforts. ||2||

gur miliai naam man raviaa bhaaee saachee preet piaar |
Meeting the Guru, the Naam comes to permeate the mind, O Siblings of Destiny, with true love and affection.

He always sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord, O Siblings of Destiny, with infinite love for the Guru. ||3||
ਆਇਆ ਸੋ ਪਰਵਾਣੁ ਹੈ ਭਾਈ ਜਿ ਗੁਰ ਸੇਵਾ ਚਿਤੁ ਲਾਇ ॥
aaeaa so paravaan hai bhaaee ji gur sevaa chit laae |
How blessed and approved is his coming into the world, O Siblings of Destiny, who focuses his mind on serving the Guru.
