ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਮਾਇਆ ਹੋਈ ਨਾਗਨੀ ਜਗਤਿ ਰਹੀ ਲਪਟਾਇ ॥

maaeaa hoee naaganee jagat rahee lapattaae |

Maya is a serpent, clinging to the world.

ਇਸ ਕੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਜੋ ਕਰੇ ਤਿਸ ਹੀ ਕਉ ਫਿਰਿ ਖਾਇ ॥

eis kee sevaa jo kare tis hee kau fir khaae |

Whoever serves her, she ultimately devours.

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਕੋਈ ਗਾਰੜੂ ਤਿਨਿ ਮਲਿ ਦਲਿ ਲਾਈ ਪਾਇ ॥

guramukh koee gaararroo tin mal dal laaee paae |

The Gurmukh is a snake-charmer; he has trampled her and thrown her down, and crushed her underfoot.

ਨਾਨਕ ਸੇਈ ਉਬਰੇ ਜਿ ਸਚਿ ਰਹੇ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਇ ॥੨॥

naanak seee ubare ji sach rahe liv laae |2|

O Nanak, they alone are saved, who remain lovingly absorbed in the True Lord. ||2||
