ਗਉੜੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੩ ॥ ਕਾਮਣਿ ਹਰਿ ਰਸਿ ਬੇਧੀ ਜੀਉ ਹਰਿ ਕੈ ਸਹਜਿ ਸੁਭਾਏ ॥ਮਨੁ ਮੋਹਨਿ ਮੋਹਿ ਲੀਆ ਜੀਉ ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਏ ॥
Gaoṛī mėhlā 3.Kāmaṇ har ras beḏẖī jīo har kai sahj subẖāe. Man mohan mohi līā jīo ḏubiḏẖā sahj samāe.

Composition of the third Guru in Raga Gaurri. (Kaaman-i = woman) the soul-bride is (beydhi) pierced/imbued with (har-i) Divine (ras-i) love because of (sahj-i) steadfast (subhaaey) good nature (kai) of the Almighty.

(Man mohan-i) the fascinating Master has (moh-i leea) enticed her mind; (dubidha = duality) thoughts about others have been (sahj-i) intuitively (samaaey) dissolved.

ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਏ ਕਾਮਣਿ ਵਰੁ ਪਾਏ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਰੰਗੁ ਲਾਏ ॥ਇਹੁ ਸਰੀਰੁ ਕੂੜਿ ਕੁਸਤਿ ਭਰਿਆ ਗਲ ਤਾਈ ਪਾਪ ਕਮਾਏ ॥
Ḏubiḏẖā sahj samāe kāmaṇ var pāe gurmaṯī rang lāe. Ih sarīr kūṛ kusaṯ bẖariā gal ṯāī pāp kamāe.

When (dubidha = duality) thoughts about others have been (sahj-i) intuitively (samaaey) dissolved, (kaaman-i) the soul-bride, i.e. the mind s purified, (kaaman-i) the soul-wife (paaey) finds (var-u) the Almighty-spouse within and (rangu laaey) makes merry, i.e. enjoys life free of vices, (gurmati) with the guru’s guidance.

Otherwise (ih) this (sareer-u) body (bharia) is (gal taaee = up to the throat) fully filled with (koorr-i) falsehood and (kusat-i) deceit with and (kamaaey) indulges in (paap) wrong-doings.

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਜਿਤੁ ਸਹਜ ਧੁਨਿ ਉਪਜੈ ਬਿਨੁ ਭਗਤੀ ਮੈਲੁ ਨ ਜਾਏ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਾਮਣਿ ਪਿਰਹਿ ਪਿਆਰੀ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਏ ॥੧॥
Gurmukẖ bẖagaṯ jiṯ sahj ḏẖun upjai bin bẖagṯī mail na jāe. Nānak kāmaṇ pirėh piārī vicẖahu āp gavāe. ||1||

To remove the filth of vices, (bhagt-i) devotion to the Almighty develops (gurmukh-i) with the guru’s guidance by (jit-u) which (sahj) steady (dhun-i) tune) upjai) comes, i.e. one conforms to Divine commands; (mail-u) the filth of other ideas (na jaaey) does not leave (bin-u) without (bhagti) devotion.

(Kaaman-i) the soul-wife who (gavaaey = loses) sheds (aap-u) self-importance (vichah-u) from within, (piaari) is loved (pirah-i) the Almighty-husband, says third Nanak. 1.

ਕਾਮਣਿ ਪਿਰੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਜੀਉ ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਭਾਇ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥ਰੈਣਿ ਸੁਖਿ ਸੁਤੀ ਜੀਉ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਉਰਿ ਧਾਰੇ ॥
Kāmaṇ har ras beḏẖī jīo har kai sahj subẖāe. Man mohan mohi līā jīo ḏubiḏẖā sahj samāe.

(Kaaman-i) the soul-bride (paaia) finds (pir-u) the spouse – the Creator within the mind – by following (bhaaey) will/teachings of (piaarey) the loveable guru.
Now she (ur-i dhaarey) keeps the Almighty (antar-i) in mind, and (suti) sleeps (sukh-i) in peace (rain-i) at night, i.e. lives life peacefully.

ਅੰਤਰਿ ਉਰਿ ਧਾਰੇ ਮਿਲੀਐ ਪਿਆਰੇ ਅਨਦਿਨੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਨਿਵਾਰੇ ॥ਅੰਤਰਿ ਮਹਲੁ ਪਿਰੁ ਰਾਵੇ ਕਾਮਣਿ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਵੀਚਾਰੇ ॥
Anṯar ur ḏẖāre milīai piāre anḏin ḏukẖ nivāre. Anṯar mahal pir rāve kāmaṇ gurmaṯī vīcẖāre.

The soul-wife (mileeai) finds (piaarey) the beloved (ur-i dhaarey) by keeping Divine virtues and commands in mind; and (nivaarey) ends (dukh) suffering due to separation (andin-u = every day) forever.
(Veechaarey) by reflecting on Divine virtues (gurmati) with the guru’s guidance, the soul-bride (raavey) enjoys (mahal-u = divine mansion) the presence of (pir-u) the Creator within.

ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਨਾਮੁ ਪੀਆ ਦਿਨ ਰਾਤੀ ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਮਾਰਿ ਨਿਵਾਰੇ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚਿ ਮਿਲੀ ਸੋਹਾਗਣਿ ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਹੇਤਿ ਅਪਾਰੇ ॥੨॥
Amriṯ nām pīā ḏin rāṯī ḏubiḏẖā mār nivāre. Nānak sacẖ milī sohagaṇ gur kai heṯ apāre. ||2||

She (peeaa) drinks/keeps in mind (amrit-u) the life-giving (naam-u) Divine commands (din) day and (raati) night, and (maar-i nivaarey) banishes (dubidha) duality from mind.
(Sohaagan) the fortunate soul-bride (mili) finds (sach) the Eternal Master by following the example of the guru’s (heyt-i) love for (apaarey) the Infinite. 2.

ਆਵਹੁ ਦਇਆ ਕਰੇ ਜੀਉ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਮ ਅਤਿ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥ਕਾਮਣਿ ਬਿਨਉ ਕਰੇ ਜੀਉ ਸਚਿ ਸਬਦਿ ਸੀਗਾਰੇ ॥
Āvhu ḏaiā kare jīo parīṯam aṯ piāre. Kāmaṇ bino kare jīo sacẖ sabaḏ sīgāre.

The soul-wife (seegaarey) adorns herself with compliance to (sabad-i) word/commands (sach-i) of the Eternal; and (binau kare) makes a request/prays: My (at-i piaarey) very dear (jeeau) revered (pritam) beloved spouse/Master, please (daiaa kare) be kind and (aavah-u = come) enable me to find You within me.

ਸਚਿ ਸਬਦਿ ਸੀਗਾਰੇ ਹਉਮੈ ਮਾਰੇ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਕਾਰਜ ਸਵਾਰੇ ॥ਜੁਗਿ ਜੁਗਿ ਏਕੋ ਸਚਾ ਸੋਈ ਬੂਝੈ ਗੁਰ ਬੀਚਾਰੇ ॥
Sacẖ sabaḏ sīgāre haumai māre gurmukẖ kāraj savāre. Jug jug eko sacẖā soī būjẖai gur bīcẖāre.

The soul-wife (seegaarey) adorns herself with compliance to (sabad-i) word/commands (sach-i) of the Eternal (maarey) kills his/her (haumai) ego (gurmukh-i) with the guru’s guidance (kaaraj savaarey = accomplishes the task) becomes likeable to the Creator.
She (beechaarey) reflects on/follows teachings of (gur) the guru and (boojhai) understands that (soee = that) the Almighty is (eyko sacha) one eternal Master (jug-i jug-i) for all ages; she longs to unite with IT.

ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਕਾਮਿ ਵਿਆਪੀ ਮੋਹਿ ਸੰਤਾਪੀ ਕਿਸੁ ਆਗੈ ਜਾਇ ਪੁਕਾਰੇ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਥਾਉ ਨ ਪਾਏ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਅਤਿ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥੩॥
Manmukẖ kām viāpī mohi sanṯāpī kis āgai jāe pukāre. Nānak manmukẖ thāo na pāe bin gur aṯ piāre. ||3||

On the other hand, the soul-woman who does not follow the guru, (manmukh-i) the self-willed woman (viaapi) remains engrossed (kaam-i) in lust, is (santaapi) suffers being caught (moh-i) in lure of temptations; she can (mokaarey) entreaty (aagai) before (kis-u = whom?) no one, she is herself responsible for the afflictions.

(Manmukh-i) a self-willed soul-wife does not (paaey) find (thaaey) place with the Almighty-husband, (bin-u = without) for not following (at-I the very (piaaarey) dear guru, says third Nanak. 3.

ਮੁੰਧ ਇਆਣੀ ਭੋਲੀ ਨਿਗੁਣੀਆ ਜੀਉ ਪਿਰੁ ਅਗਮ ਅਪਾਰਾ ॥ਆਪੇ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲੀਐ ਜੀਉ ਆਪੇ ਬਖਸਣਹਾਰਾ ॥
Munḏẖ iāṇī bẖolī niguṇīā jīo pir agam apārā. Āpe mel milīai jīo āpe bakẖsaṇhārā.

The (iaani bholi) immature (mundh) soul-woman is (niguneeaa) meritless while (pir-u) the Almighty-husband (agam) beyond comprehension and (apaaraa) infinitely wise.

Those whom (aapey = self) the Almighty (bakhsanhaara) forgives transgressions, (meyl-i = causes to meet) keeps them in remembrance/compliance and (meyl-i) unites with IT-self.

ਅਵਗਣ ਬਖਸਣਹਾਰਾ ਕਾਮਣਿ ਕੰਤੁ ਪਿਆਰਾ ਘਟਿ ਘਟਿ ਰਹਿਆ ਸਮਾਈ ॥ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਭਾਇ ਭਗਤੀ ਪਾਈਐ ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਬੂਝ ਬੁਝਾਈ ॥

(Piaaraa) the loving kant-u) Almighty-husband (kaaman-i) of the soul-wife (bakhsanhaara) forgives (avgan) faults; IT (rahiaa samaaee) is present (ghatt-i ghatt-i) in every mind.

IT (paaeeai) found with (preym) love and (preet-I bhaaey) loving (bhagti) dedication/obedience; (satigur-i) the true guru (bujhaaee) imparts this (boojh) understanding.

ਸਦਾ ਅਨੰਦਿ ਰਹੈ ਦਿਨ ਰਾਤੀ ਅਨਦਿਨੁ ਰਹੈ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਈ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਸਹਜੇ ਹਰਿ ਵਰੁ ਪਾਇਆ ਸਾਧਨ ਨਉ ਨਿਧਿ ਪਾਈ ॥੪॥੩॥
Saḏā anand rahai ḏin rāṯī anḏin rahai liv lāī. Nānak sėhje har var pāiā sā ḏẖan nao niḏẖ pāī. ||4||3||

The soul-wife then (andin-u = everyday) ever (rahai) remains (anand-i) in bliss with (liv) attention (laaee) fixed on obedience to Divine commands.

(Saadhan) the soul-woman who (paaee) has obtained (naunidh-i = nine reassures) awareness of Namm (sahjey) intuitively (paaiaa) finds (var-u) the Almighty, says Third Nanak. 4. 3.

Composition of the third guru in Raga Gaurri. Question: (Maaia) temptations of the world play make the world like a (sabal-u) powerful/difficult (sar-u) pool/ocean (vartai) present eveywhere; (kiau kar-i) how may this (dutar) hard to cross ocean (taria) be crossed, i.e. temptations overcome?

Answer: (Kar-i) make living by (naam-u) Divine commands of (raam) the Almighty, (bohitha) the ship and (paaey) place (sabad-u) the guru’s teachings as (kheyvatt-u) the sailor captain of the ship (vich-i) in it.

ਸਬਦੁ ਖੇਵਟੁ ਵਿਚਿ ਪਾਏ ਹਰਿ ਆਪਿ ਲਘਾਏ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਦੁਤਰੁ ਤਰੀਐ ॥ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਪਰਾਪਤਿ ਹੋਵੈ ਜੀਵਤਿਆ ਇਉ ਮਰੀਐ ॥

When one (paaey) places/takes (sabad-u) the guru’s teachings as (kheyvatt-u) the sailor captain of the ship (vich-i) in it, i.e. when we obey Naam, with the guru’s guidance, (har-i) the Almighty (aap-i) IT-self (laghaaey) ferries; (in bidh-i) this is how we (tareeai) can get across/overcome (dutar-u) the hard-to-cross ocean of temptations

Further, (bhagati) devotion (praapat-i hovai = received) inculcated (gurmukh-i) with the guru’s guidance; (iau) this is how we (mareeai) die (jeevtia) while alive – i.e. not be affected by temptations like a dead person.

ਖਿਨ ਮਹਿ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮਿ ਕਿਲਵਿਖ ਕਾਟੇ ਭਏ ਪਵਿਤੁ ਸਰੀਰਾ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮਿ ਨਿਸਤਾਰਾ ਕੰਚਨ ਭਏ ਮਨੂਰਾ ॥੧॥
Kẖin mėh rām nām kilvikẖ kāte bẖae paviṯ sarīrā. Nānak rām nām nisṯārā kancẖan bẖae manūrā. ||1||

Conformance (naam-i) to Divine commands of (raam) the Almighty, (kaattey = cuts) negate (kilvikh) influences of past wrongdoings (khin mah-i) momentarily; thus (sareera) the body/mind (bhaey) becomes (pavit-u) purified.
(Nistaara = getting across night/life) emancipation from rebirth is obtained with compliance (raam naam-i) to Divine commands, with purified life, like (manoora) waste left by purifying a metal becomes (kanchan) gold, when it comes in contact with Paaras – as is the belief. 1.

ਇਸਤਰੀ ਪੁਰਖ ਕਾਮਿ ਵਿਆਪੇ ਜੀਉ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮ ਕੀ ਬਿਧਿ ਨਹੀ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ਮਾਤ ਪਿਤਾ ਸੁਤ ਭਾਈ ਖਰੇ ਪਿਆਰੇ ਜੀਉ ਡੂਬਿ ਮੁਏ ਬਿਨੁ ਪਾਣੀ ॥

The (istri) wife and (purakh) husband (viaapey) indulge in (kaam-i) satisfaction of desires and (na jaani = not known) forget (bidhi = method) the path of (raam naam) Divine commands.
In the family one remains immersed in (kharey) strong (piaarey) love for (maat) the mother, (pitaa) father, (sut = sons) children and (bhaaee = brothers) siblings. But they are of no help in the end, it is like (doob-i mooey) being drowned (bin-u) without (paani) water – an axiom -, i.e. feel ashamed for not obeying Divine commands.

 ਡੂਬਿ ਮੁਏ ਬਿਨੁ ਪਾਣੀ ਗਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਜਾਣੀ ਹਉਮੈ ਧਾਤੁ ਸੰਸਾਰੇ ॥ਜੋ ਆਇਆ ਸੋ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਜਾਸੀ ਉਬਰੇ ਗੁਰ ਵੀਚਾਰੇ ॥
Dūb mue bin pāṇī gaṯ nahī jāṇī haumai ḏẖāṯ sansāre. Jo āiā so sabẖ ko jāsī ubre gur vīcẖāre.

They (doob-i mooey) are drowned (bin-u) without (paani) water, i.e. feel ashamed for not obeying Divine commands; because of (haumai) ego, one (nahi jaani) remains oblivious of the need for (gati) freedom from attachments; this results in (dhaat = running) restlessness to satisfy desires in (sansaarai) the world.
One forgets that (sabh ko) everyone (jo) those who (aaia= comes) is born (so) s/he (jaasi = will go)will  die; (ubrey) emancipation from rebirth is possible through (gur veechaarey) reflecting/obeying on the guru’s teachings.

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਹੋਵੈ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਖਾਣੈ ਆਪਿ ਤਰੈ ਕੁਲ ਤਾਰੇ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਸੈ ਘਟ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਮਿਲੇ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥੨॥
Gurmukẖ hovai rām nām vakẖāṇai āp ṯarai kul ṯāre. Nānak nām vasai gẖat anṯar gurmaṯ mile piāre. ||2||

One who (hovai) is (gurmukh) the guru’s follower (vakhaanai = says) utters and obeys (raam naam-u) Divine commands; s/he (aap-i) him/her-self (tarai = swims) overcomes vices and (taarey = ferries) brings good name to his/her (kul) lineage. 
Says third Nanak: When (naam-u) Divine commands (vasai = abide) are kept (antar-i) in (ghat) in the mind and obeyed (gurmati) with the guru’s guidance, (piaarey) the beloved Master (miley) is found. 2.

ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮ ਬਿਨੁ ਕੋ ਥਿਰੁ ਨਾਹੀ ਜੀਉ ਬਾਜੀ ਹੈ ਸੰਸਾਰਾ ॥ਦ੍ਰਿੜੁ ਭਗਤਿ ਸਚੀ ਜੀਉ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਾਪਾਰਾ ॥
Rām nām bin ko thir nāhī jīo bājī hai sansārā. Ḏariṛ bẖagaṯ sacẖī jīo rām nām vāpārā.

This (sansaara) world is a (baaji) play of the Creator, i.e. people fall prey to temptations; (koi naahi) no one remains (thir-u) steadfast (bin-u) without obeying (raam naam) Divine commands – fixing focus on duties of life.
One should therefore be (drirr-u = firm) steadfast in (sachi) true (bhagat-i) dedication to the Eternal Master alone, and (vaapaara = do business) conduct oneself in accordance with (raam naam-u) Divine commands.

ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਾਪਾਰਾ ਅਗਮ ਅਪਾਰਾ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਧਨੁ ਪਾਈਐ ॥ਸੇਵਾ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਭਗਤਿ ਇਹ ਸਾਚੀ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਈਐ ॥
Rām nām vāpārā agam apārā gurmaṯī ḏẖan pāīai. Sevā suraṯ bẖagaṯ ih sācẖī vicẖahu āp gavāīai.

Like the conduct of business needs capital, awareness of (raam naam-u) Divine commands of the Creator who is (agam) beyond comprehension and (apaara) Infinite is (dhan-u) wealth/support for (vaapaara = dealings) conduct in life; this awareness (paaeeai) obtained (gurmati) with the guru’s teachings.
(Ih) this (saachi) true (seyva) service, (surat-i) consciousness and (bhagat-i) devotion; to (gavaaeeai = lose) give up (aap-u) self-importance (vachah-u) from within – and obey Divine commands.

(Ham) I was (mat-i = sense, heen = without) senseless, (moorakh) ignorant and (mugadh) foolish and (andhey = blind) ignorant; (satigur-i) the true guru (paaey) put me (maarag-i) on track.

Those who live (sabada-i) by Divine commands (gurmukh-i) with the guru’s guidance, are (suhaavey) comfortable to (andin-u = everyday) ever (gaaey = sing) praise/emulate (hari) Divine (gun) virtues, says third Nanak. 3.

ਆਪਿ ਕਰਾਏ ਕਰੇ ਆਪਿ ਜੀਉ ਆਪੇ ਸਬਦਿ ਸਵਾਰੇ ॥ਆਪੇ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਆਪਿ ਸਬਦੁ ਜੀਉ ਜੁਗੁ ਜੁਗੁ ਭਗਤ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥
Āp karāe kare āp jīo āpe sabaḏ savāre. Āpe saṯgur āp sabaḏ jīo jug jug bẖagaṯ piāre.

But one can do nothing on his/her own; the Creator (aap-i) IT-self (karey) creates the creatures and (karaaey = causing to do) to perform roles in life. For this IT (savaarey = accomplishes) guides (sabad-i) through the guru’s teachings.
Is IT-self (satigur-u) the true guru, IT-self (sabad-u word) the teachings; (piaarey) has shown love for, i.e. accomplished tasks of,  (bhagat) obedient devotees (jug-u jug-u = age after age) at all times.

Jug jug bẖagaṯ piāre har āp savāre āpe bẖagṯī lāe. Āpe ḏānā āpe bīnā āpe sev karāe.

(Har-i) the Creator (piaarey) has shown love for, i.e. accomplished tasks of,  (bhagat) obedient devotees (jug-u jug-u = age after age) at all times IT-self transforms/guides and (laaey) motivates them to (bhagti) devotion/compliance of Divine commands.
Being in conscience of everyone, the Almighty (beena) sees and (daanaa = wise) knows everything; IT-self (karaaey) causes to (seyv= serve) to perform their roles. 

ਆਪੇ ਗੁਣਦਾਤਾ ਅਵਗੁਣ ਕਾਟੇ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਸਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਸਦ ਬਲਿਹਾਰੀ ਸਚੇ ਵਿਟਹੁ ਆਪੇ ਕਰੇ ਕਰਾਏ ॥੪॥੪॥
Āpe guṇḏāṯā avguṇ kāte hirḏai nām vasāe. Nānak saḏ balihārī sacẖe vitahu āpe kare karāe. ||4||4||

The Creator IT-self (gundaata = giver of virtues) imparts capability, (kaattey = cuts) removes (avgun) faults, and (vasaaey) causes to keep (naam-u) Divine commands (hirdai) in mind.
Third Nanak, the seeker, (sad) ever (balihaari = sacrifices, vittahu = to) adores (sachey) the Eternal Master who (aapey) IT-self (karey) creates the creatures and (karaaey = causing to do) perform roles in life. 4. 4.

Composition of the third guru in Raga Gaurri. The body addresses the soul; my dear (pira) master, (seyva kar-i = serve) follow the teachings (gur ki) of the guru to (dhiaaey) attentively obey (har-i naam-u) Divine commands.
Do not (jaah-i) go (door-i) away (manjnah-u) from me my dear master, you can (paaey) find (har-i) the Almighty (ghar-i baitthia = sitting at home) within.

ਘਰਿ ਬੈਠਿਆ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਏ ਸਦਾ ਚਿਤੁ ਲਾਏ ਸਹਜੇ ਸਤਿ ਸੁਭਾਏ ॥ਗੁਰ ਕੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਖਰੀ ਸੁਖਾਲੀ ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਆਪਿ ਕਰਾਏ ॥
Gẖar baiṯẖiā har pāe saḏā cẖiṯ lāe sėhje saṯ subẖāe. Gur kī sevā kẖarī sukẖālī jis no āp karāe.

You can (paaey) find (har-i) the Almighty (ghar-i baitthia = sitting at home) within, if you (sadaa) ever (sahjey) intuitively (laaey) fix (chit) consciousness on Divine commands, with (sat) true (subhaaey) love.

(Seyva = service) compliance with directions of (gur) the guru is (khari) very (sukhaali) easy for one (jis no) whom the Almighty (aap-i) IT-self (karaaey = causes to do) leads to the guru.

ਨਾਮੋ ਬੀਜੇ ਨਾਮੋ ਜੰਮੈ ਨਾਮੋ ਮੰਨਿ ਵਸਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਸਚਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਵਡਿਆਈ ਪੂਰਬਿ ਲਿਖਿਆ ਪਾਏ ॥੧॥
Nāmo bīje nāmo jammai nāmo man vasāe. Nānak sacẖ nām vadiāī pūrab likẖiā pāe. ||1||

If one (beejai = sows) puts (naamo) Divine virtues in the mind (jammai = sprout) one acts according to them. One should therefore (vasaaey) kep Naam (mann-i) in mind
But one receives (vaddiaaee) glory/honor by compliance (naam-i) Naam (sach-i) of the Eternal; one goes to the guru and (paaey) obtains awareness of Naam, when (likhiaa) written (poorab-i) from the past, i.e. by nature formed based on past deeds, says third Nanak. 1.

ਹਰਿ ਕਾ ਨਾਮੁ ਮੀਠਾ ਪਿਰਾ ਜੀਉ ਜਾ ਚਾਖਹਿ ਚਿਤੁ ਲਾਏ ॥ਰਸਨਾ ਹਰਿ ਰਸੁ ਚਾਖੁ ਮੁਯੇ ਜੀਉ ਅਨ ਰਸ ਸਾਦ ਗਵਾਏ ॥
Har kā nām mīṯẖā pirā jīo jā cẖākẖahi cẖiṯ lāe. Rasnā har ras cẖākẖ muye jīo an ras sāḏ gavāe.

My dear soul experience of conforming to Naam is (meetthaa) sweet, (ja) if one (chaakhah-i = tastes) complies (laaey) attaching (chit-u) the consciousness, i.e. lovingly.

O my (muyey) may you die – expression used to express love, my dear (rasna) tongue you (Muyey = dead) have fallen prey to temptations; (chaakh-u) taste (har-i) Divine (ras-u) elixir, i.e. live by Naam, and you will (gavaaey = lose) give up (an) other (saad) tastes, i.e. other pursuits both spiritual and mundane.

ਸਦਾ ਹਰਿ ਰਸੁ ਪਾਏ ਜਾ ਹਰਿ ਭਾਏ ਰਸਨਾ ਸਬਦਿ ਸੁਹਾਏ ॥ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਏ ਸਦਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਏ ਨਾਮਿ ਰਹੈ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਏ ॥
Saḏā har ras pāe jā har bẖāe rasnā sabaḏ suhāe. Nām ḏẖiāe saḏā sukẖ pāe nām rahai liv lāe.

One (paaey) receives  (har-i) Divine (ras-u) experience when (bhaaey) liked by (har-i) the Almighty, i.e. by obedience; (rasna) the tongue (suhaaey) enjoys (sabad-I = by the word) praising Divine virtues.
One who experiences (dhiaaey) pays attention to/obeys (naam-u) Divine commands then one is (sadaa) ever (paaey) obtains (sukh-u) peace; s/he (rahai) remains with (lav) mind (laaey) fixed (naam-i) on obedience to Naam.

ਨਾਮੇ ਉਪਜੈ ਨਾਮੇ ਬਿਨਸੈ ਨਾਮੇ ਸਚਿ ਸਮਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਪਾਈਐ ਆਪੇ ਲਏ ਲਵਾਏ ॥੨॥
Nāme upjai nāme binsai nāme sacẖ samāe. Nānak nām gurmaṯī pāīai āpe lae lavāe. ||2||

One (upjai) is born and (binsai = destroyed) dies (naamey = by naam) according to laws of nature and (samaaey) merges (sach-i) in the Eternal (naamey) by obeying Naam.

Awareness of Naam (paaeeai) is obtained (gurmati) with the guru’s guidance; the Almighty (aapey) IT-self (laey lavaaey) has it taken/received, by leading to the guru, says third Nanak. 2.

Divine virtues are (paae) are received (gurmati) through the guru’s teachings; the Creator (aape) IT-self (laey = gets) causes them (lavaae = attached) to be taken/received, says Nanak. 2.

ਏਹ ਵਿਡਾਣੀ ਚਾਕਰੀ ਪਿਰਾ ਜੀਉ ਧਨ ਛੋਡਿ ਪਰਦੇਸਿ ਸਿਧਾਏ ॥ਦੂਜੈ ਕਿਨੈ ਸੁਖੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਓ ਪਿਰਾ ਜੀਉ ਬਿਖਿਆ ਲੋਭਿ ਲੁਭਾਏ ॥
Ėh vidāṇī cẖākrī pirā jīo ḏẖan cẖẖod parḏes siḏẖāe. Ḏūjai kinai sukẖ na pāio pirā jīo bikẖiā lobẖ lubẖāe.

The body says: O (pira jiau) dear soul- spouse, the practice of (chhodd-i) leaving behind (dhan = wife) body and (sidhaaey) going (pardeys = abroad) outside in search of the objective/Creator; (eyh) this is (chaakri = service) working for (vidaani) others while in the employment the Master – i.e. they are rituals to impress the world but do not lead to the Creator.
(Kinai na) no one has ever (paaio) obtained (sukh-u) comfort/peace, (pira jio) my dear soul; it is only (lubhaaey) being lured (lobh-i) by temptations (bikhia = poison) to die, i.e. succumb to them.

ਬਿਖਿਆ ਲੋਭਿ ਲੁਭਾਏ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਏ ਓਹੁ ਕਿਉ ਕਰਿ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਏ ॥ਚਾਕਰੀ ਵਿਡਾਣੀ ਖਰੀ ਦੁਖਾਲੀ ਆਪੁ ਵੇਚਿ ਧਰਮੁ ਗਵਾਏ ॥
Bikẖiā lobẖ lubẖāe bẖaram bẖulāe oh kio kar sukẖ pāe. Cẖākrī vidāṇī kẖarī ḏukẖālī āp vecẖ ḏẖaram gavāe.

One who (lubhaaey) is lured by (lobh) temptations (bikhia = poison) to die, i.e. succumb to them, (bhulaaey) is misled (bharam-i) in delusion; (oh-u) that person (kiau kar-i = how?) cannot (paaey) get (sukh-u) peace, i.e. cannot find the Almighty within.
(Chaakri) service (viddaani) of others, leaving the Master is (khari) very (dukhaali) grief giving; one (veych-i) sells (aap-u) the self and (gvaaey) loses (dharam-u) conscience.

ਮਾਇਆ ਬੰਧਨ ਟਿਕੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਖਿਨੁ ਖਿਨੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਸੰਤਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਮਾਇਆ ਕਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਤਦੇ ਚੂਕੈ ਜਾ ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਚਿਤੁ ਲਾਏ ॥੩॥
Māiā banḏẖan tikai nāhī kẖin kẖin ḏukẖ sanṯāe. Nānak māiā kā ḏukẖ ṯaḏe cẖūkai jā gur sabḏī cẖiṯ lāe. ||3||

One in (bandhan) bondage of (maaia) temptations of the world-play, (naahi) does not (ttikai naaahi) remain stable and is afflicted by (dukh-u) the pain of forgetting the Almighty (khin khin) every moment.
(Dukh-u) the pain (ka = of) caused by (maaiaa) temptations, (chookai) ends (tadey) only then, (jaa) if one (laaey) fixes (chit-u) consciousness (sabdi) on word/teachings of the guru. 3.

ਮਨਮੁਖ ਮੁਗਧ ਗਾਵਾਰੁ ਪਿਰਾ ਜੀਉ ਸਬਦੁ ਮਨਿ ਨ ਵਸਾਏ ॥ਮਾਇਆ ਕਾ ਭ੍ਰਮੁ ਅੰਧੁ ਪਿਰਾ ਜੀਉ ਹਰਿ ਮਾਰਗੁ ਕਿਉ ਪਾਏ ॥
Manmukẖ mugaḏẖ gāvār pirā jīo sabaḏ man na vasāe. Māiā kā bẖaram anḏẖ pirā jīo har mārag kio pāe.

(Pira jiau) my dear soul, a (mamukh) a self-willed person is (mugadh) foolish not to (vasaaey) keep (man-i) in mind (sabad) the guru’s teachings and remain (gaavaar-u) ignorant of Naam.
(Bhram-u) delusion caused by (maaia) temptations makes one (andh-u = blind) to Divine virtues, my dear soul; one (kiau = how?) cannot (paaey) find (maarag-u) path of Naam, ordained by (har-i) the Almighty.

ਕਿਉ ਮਾਰਗੁ ਪਾਏ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਭਾਏ ਮਨਮੁਖਿ ਆਪੁ ਗਣਾਏ ॥ਹਰਿ ਕੇ ਚਾਕਰ ਸਦਾ ਸੁਹੇਲੇ ਗੁਰ ਚਰਣੀ ਚਿਤੁ ਲਾਏ ॥
Kio mārag pāe bin saṯgur bẖāe manmukẖ āp gaṇāe. Har ke cẖākar saḏā suhele gur cẖarṇī cẖiṯ lāe.

(manmukh-i) a self-willed person (kiau = how) cannot (paaey) find (maarag-u) path, (bin-u) without complying with (bhaaey) will/directions of (satigur) the true guru, but wants (aap-u) the self (ganaaey) to be counted as great.

(Chaakar = servants) obedient devotees of (har-i) the Almighty (laaey) fix (chit-u) consciousness on being (charni) at feet/in obedience of (gur) the guru and are (sadaa) ever (suheley) in comfort/peace

(Kio) how can (manmukh) a self-willed person who (ganaai) wants him/her-self to be counted – i.e. is caught in ego – (maarag paae) find the path to the Creator? S/he cannot do so (bin) without (satgur) the true guru (bhaae) being pleased – i.e. without him/her seeking and following the guru’s teachings.
On the other hand (har ke chaakar) servants of the Creator – i.e. those who live by Divine commands, are (sadaa) ever (suhele) in comfort/peace.

ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਹਰਿ ਜੀਉ ਕਰੇ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਸਦਾ ਹਰਿ ਕੇ ਗੁਣ ਗਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਰਤਨੁ ਜਗਿ ਲਾਹਾ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਆਪਿ ਬੁਝਾਏ ॥੪॥੫॥੭॥
Jis no har jīo kare kirpā saḏā har ke guṇ gāe. Nānak nām raṯan jag lāhā gurmukẖ āp bujẖāe. ||4||5||7||

One (jis no) on whom (har) the Creator (kirpa karey) is kind to lead to the guru, that person (sadaa) ever (gaaey = sings) praises/emulates (gun) virtues (key) of (har-i) the Almighty.

S/he makes use of (laahaa) the benefit/opportunity of (jag-i = of the world) human birth to obtain (ratan-u = jewel) the wealth of awareness of Naam – and wash off faults gathered in past births -; the Almighty (aap-i) IT=self leads to the guru and (bujhaaey) causes to understand (gurmukh-i) with the guru’s guidance, says third Nanak. 4. 5. 7.
