ਪਉੜੀ ੪

paurree 4

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸੁਖ ਫਲੁ ਪਿਰਮ ਰਸੁ ਕਿਉ ਆਖਿ ਵਖਾਣੈ ।

guramukh sukh fal piram ras kiau aakh vakhaanai |

Quaffing the elixir of love giving fruits of delight, how could a gurmukh explain that ineffable joy?

ਸੁਣਿ ਸੁਣਿ ਆਖਣੁ ਆਖਣਾ ਓਹੁ ਸਾਉ ਨ ਜਾਣੈ ।

sun sun aakhan aakhanaa ohu saau na jaanai |

Much is said and listened to but the people remain ignorant of its real taste.

ਬ੍ਰਹਮਾ ਬਿਸਨੁ ਮਹੇਸੁ ਮਿਲਿ ਕਥਿ ਵੇਦ ਪੁਰਾਣੈ ।

brahamaa bisan mahes mil kath ved puraanai |

In the Vedas and Puranas, Brahma, Visnu and Mahesa have told enough about the delight of love.

ਚਾਰਿ ਕਤੇਬਾਂ ਆਖੀਅਨਿ ਦੀਨ ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣੈ ।

chaar katebaan aakheean deen musalamaanai |

One can see the four scriptures of semitic religion in this context.

ਸੇਖਨਾਗੁ ਸਿਮਰਣੁ ਕਰੈ ਸਾਂਗੀਤ ਸੁਹਾਣੈ ।

sekhanaag simaran karai saangeet suhaanai |

Sesanag also remembers it and all musical measures also are busy in adorning it.

ਅਨਹਦ ਨਾਦ ਅਸੰਖ ਸੁਣਿ ਹੋਏ ਹੈਰਾਣੈ ।

anahad naad asankh sun hoe hairaanai |

One becomes full of wonder after listening to the myriads of unstruck melodies,

ਅਕਥ ਕਥਾ ਕਰਿ ਨੇਤਿ ਨੇਤਿ ਪੀਲਾਏ ਭਾਣੈ ।੪।

akath kathaa kar net net peelaae bhaanai |4|

But the tale of that elixir, love, is ineffable which one fortunately drinks in the will of the Lord.
