ਮਨੁ ਹਰਿ ਕੀਆ ਤਨੁ ਸਭੁ ਸਾਜਿਆ ॥ ਪੰਚ ਤਤ ਰਚਿ ਜੋਤਿ ਨਿਵਾਜਿਆ ॥ ਸਿਹਜਾ ਧਰਤਿ ਬਰਤਨ ਕਉ ਪਾਨੀ ॥ ਨਿਮਖ ਨ ਵਿਸਾਰਹੁ ਸੇਵਹੁ ਸਾਰਿਗਪਾਨੀ ॥੧॥

Man har kī▫ā ṯan sabẖ sāji▫ā.   Pancẖ ṯaṯ racẖ joṯ nivāji▫ā.  Sihjā ḏẖaraṯ barṯan ka▫o pānī.   Nimakẖ na visārahu sevhu sārigpānī. ||1||

 

(Har-i) the Creator (keea) made (sabh) everything including (man-u) mind and (tan-u) body and (saajiaa) created the creature. And (rach-i) having created the body of (panch) five elements – earth, sky, water, air and space – (nivaajiaa) conferred/gave (jot-i = light) the soul.

God gave (dharat-i) the land (sihja = bed) to rest and (paani) water (kau) for (bartan) use, i.e. the wherewithal for subsistence. Do not for (nimakh) a moment (visaarhu) forget/ignore to (seyvhu = serve) obey directions of (saarigpaani = give of water to the rain bird) the Creator who has provided your needs. 1.

 

ਮਨ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਸੇਵਿ ਹੋਇ ਪਰਮ ਗਤੇ ॥ ਹਰਖ ਸੋਗ ਤੇ ਰਹਹਿ ਨਿਰਾਰਾ ਤਾਂ ਤੂ ਪਾਵਹਿ ਪ੍ਰਾਨਪਤੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

If you (rahah-i) remain (niraara = separate) unaffected (tey) by (harakh) joy and (sog) sorrow, i.e. accept Divine will, (taa-n) then (too) you will (paaah-i) find (pranpatey = master of life) the Creator. 1

ਤਹਾ ਸਖਾਈ ਜਹ ਕੋਇ ਨ ਹੋਵੈ ॥ ਕੋਟਿ ਅਪ੍ਰਾਧ ਇਕ ਖਿਨ ਮਹਿ ਧੋਵੈ ॥ ਦਾਤਿ ਕਰੈ ਨਹੀ ਪਛਤਾਵੈ ॥ ਏਕਾ ਬਖਸ ਫਿਰਿ ਬਹੁਰਿ ਨ ਬੁਲਾਵੈ ॥੩॥

Ŧahā sakẖā▫ī jah ko▫e na hovai.   Kot aprāḏẖ ik kẖin mėh ḏẖovai.  Ḏāṯ karai nahī pacẖẖoṯāvai.   Ėkā bakẖas fir bahur na bulāvai. ||3||

 

The Almighty (sakhaaee) is the helper (tah) there (jah) where there is (koey na) none to help. God (dhovai) washes off (kott-i) crores of (apraadh) faults in (ik) one (khin) moment – of one who starts living by Divine commands.

God (karai = does) gives (daat-i) benedictions but does not (pachhotaavai) repent even someone does not obey – and keeps giving. Does not (bulaavai) call (bahur-i) again to account for deeds (eyka) once God (bakhas) forgives that soul. 3.

ਸੁਣਿ ਸਜਣ ਸੰਤ ਮੀਤ ਸੁਹੇਲੇ ॥ ਨਾਮੁ ਰਤਨੁ ਹਰਿ ਅਗਹ ਅਤੋਲੇ ॥ ਸਦਾ ਸਦਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਗੁਣ ਨਿਧਿ ਗਾਈਐ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਵਡਭਾਗੀ ਪਾਈਐ ॥੪॥੬॥

Suṇ sajaṇ sanṯ mīṯ suhele.   Nām raṯan har agah aṯole.  Saḏā saḏā parabẖ guṇ niḏẖ gā▫ī▫ai.   Kaho Nānak vadbẖāgī pā▫ī▫ai. ||4||6||
