ਪਉੜੀ ॥

paurree |

Pauree:

ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਮੋਹੁ ਗੁਬਾਰੁ ਹੈ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਬੋਲੈ ॥

manamukh mohu gubaar hai doojai bhaae bolai |

The self-willed manmukh is trapped in the darkness of emotional attachment; in the love of duality he speaks.

ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਸਦਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਹੈ ਨਿਤ ਨੀਰੁ ਵਿਰੋਲੈ ॥

doojai bhaae sadaa dukh hai nit neer virolai |

The love of duality brings pain forever; he churns the water endlessly.

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਈਐ ਮਥਿ ਤਤੁ ਕਢੋਲੈ ॥

guramukh naam dhiaaeeai math tat kadtolai |

The Gurmukh meditates on the Naam, the Name of the Lord; he churns, and obtains the essence of reality.

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਪਰਗਾਸੁ ਘਟਿ ਚਾਨਣਾ ਹਰਿ ਲਧਾ ਟੋਲੈ ॥

antar paragaas ghatt chaananaa har ladhaa ttolai |

The Divine Light illuminates his heart deep within; he seeks the Lord, and obtains Him.

ਆਪੇ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਇਦਾ ਕਿਛੁ ਕਹਣੁ ਨ ਜਾਈ ॥੧੭॥

aape bharam bhulaaeidaa kichh kehan na jaaee |17|

He Himself deludes in doubt; no one can comment on this. ||17||
