ਪਉੜੀ ॥

paurree |

Pauree:

ਲਾਹਾ ਜਗ ਮਹਿ ਸੇ ਖਟਹਿ ਜਿਨ ਹਰਿ ਧਨੁ ਰਾਸਿ ॥

laahaa jag meh se khatteh jin har dhan raas |

They alone earn profit in this world, who have the wealth of the Lord's Name.

ਦੁਤੀਆ ਭਾਉ ਨ ਜਾਣਨੀ ਸਚੇ ਦੀ ਆਸ ॥

duteea bhaau na jaananee sache dee aas |

They do not know the love of duality; they place their hopes in the True Lord.

ਨਿਹਚਲੁ ਏਕੁ ਸਰੇਵਿਆ ਹੋਰੁ ਸਭ ਵਿਣਾਸੁ ॥

nihachal ek sareviaa hor sabh vinaas |

They serve the One Eternal Lord, and give up everything else.

ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਜਿਸੁ ਵਿਸਰੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਸਾਸੁ ॥

paarabraham jis visarai tis birathaa saas |

One who forgets the Supreme Lord God - useless is his breath.

ਕੰਠਿ ਲਾਇ ਜਨ ਰਖਿਆ ਨਾਨਕ ਬਲਿ ਜਾਸੁ ॥੧੫॥

kantth laae jan rakhiaa naanak bal jaas |15|

God draws His humble servant close in His loving embrace and protects him - Nanak is a sacrifice to Him. ||15||
