ਮਃ ੫ ॥

mahalaa 5 |

Fifth Mehl:

ਬਿਖੈ ਕਉੜਤਣਿ ਸਗਲ ਮਾਹਿ ਜਗਤਿ ਰਹੀ ਲਪਟਾਇ ॥

bikhai kaurratan sagal maeh jagat rahee lapattaae |

The bitter poison of corruption is everywhere; it clings to the substance of the world.

ਨਾਨਕ ਜਨਿ ਵੀਚਾਰਿਆ ਮੀਠਾ ਹਰਿ ਕਾ ਨਾਉ ॥੨॥

naanak jan veechaariaa meetthaa har kaa naau |2|

O Nanak, the humble being has realized that the Name of the Lord alone is sweet. ||2||
