ਮਃ ੩ ॥

mahalaa 3 |

Third Mehl:

ਮਨਮੁਖ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਸੇਵਿਆ ਦੁਖੁ ਲਗਾ ਬਹੁਤਾ ਆਇ ॥

manamukh har naam na seviaa dukh lagaa bahutaa aae |

The self-willed manmukh does not serve the Lord's Name, and so he suffers in horrible pain.

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਅਗਿਆਨੁ ਅੰਧੇਰੁ ਹੈ ਸੁਧਿ ਨ ਕਾਈ ਪਾਇ ॥

antar agiaan andher hai sudh na kaaee paae |

He is filled with the darkness of ignorance, and he does not understand anything.

ਮਨਹਠਿ ਸਹਜਿ ਨ ਬੀਜਿਓ ਭੁਖਾ ਕਿ ਅਗੈ ਖਾਇ ॥

manahatth sehaj na beejio bhukhaa ki agai khaae |

Because of his stubborn mind, he does not plant the seeds of intuitive peace; what will he eat in the world hereafter, to satisfy his hunger?

ਨਾਮੁ ਨਿਧਾਨੁ ਵਿਸਾਰਿਆ ਦੂਜੈ ਲਗਾ ਜਾਇ ॥

naam nidhaan visaariaa doojai lagaa jaae |

He has forgotten the treasure of the Naam; he is caught in the love of duality.

ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਮਿਲਹਿ ਵਡਿਆਈਆ ਜੇ ਆਪੇ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥੨॥

naanak guramukh mileh vaddiaaeea je aape mel milaae |2|

O Nanak, the Gurmukhs are honored with glory, when the Lord Himself unites them in His Union. ||2||
