ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਃ ੩ ॥

salok mahalaa 3 |

Salok, Third Mehl:

ਜਿਨਾ ਗੁਰੁ ਨਹੀ ਭੇਟਿਆ ਭੈ ਕੀ ਨਾਹੀ ਬਿੰਦ ॥

jinaa gur nahee bhettiaa bhai kee naahee bind |

Those who do not meet with the Guru, who have no Fear of God at all,

ਆਵਣੁ ਜਾਵਣੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਘਣਾ ਕਦੇ ਨ ਚੂਕੈ ਚਿੰਦ ॥

aavan jaavan dukh ghanaa kade na chookai chind |

continue coming and going in reincarnation, and suffer terrible pain; their anxiety is never relieved.

ਕਾਪੜ ਜਿਵੈ ਪਛੋੜੀਐ ਘੜੀ ਮੁਹਤ ਘੜੀਆਲੁ ॥

kaaparr jivai pachhorreeai gharree muhat gharreeaal |

They are beaten like clothes being washed on the rocks, and struck every hour like chimes.

ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚੇ ਨਾਮ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਿਰਹੁ ਨ ਚੁਕੈ ਜੰਜਾਲੁ ॥੧॥

naanak sache naam bin sirahu na chukai janjaal |1|

O Nanak, without the True Name, these entanglements are not removed from hanging over one's head. ||1||
