ਸਲੋਕ ਮਃ ੩ ॥

salok mahalaa teejaa ||

Shalok, Third Mehla:

ਹਉਮੈ ਵਿਚਿ ਜਗਤੁ ਮੁਆ ਮਰਦੋ ਮਰਦਾ ਜਾਇ ॥

haumai vich jagat muaa maradho maradhaa jai ||

In egotism, the world is dead; it dies and dies, again and again.

ਜਿਚਰੁ ਵਿਚਿ ਦੰਮੁ ਹੈ ਤਿਚਰੁ ਨ ਚੇਤਈ ਕਿ ਕਰੇਗੁ ਅਗੈ ਜਾਇ ॥

jichar vich dha(n)m hai tichar na chetiee k kareg agai jai ||

As long as there is breath in the body, he does not remember the Lord; what will he do in the world hereafter?

ਗਿਆਨੀ ਹੋਇ ਸੁ ਚੇਤੰਨੁ ਹੋਇ ਅਗਿਆਨੀ ਅੰਧੁ ਕਮਾਇ ॥

giaanee hoi su cheta(n)n hoi agiaanee a(n)dh kamai ||

One who remembers the Lord is a spiritual teacher; the ignorant one acts blindly.

ਨਾਨਕ ਏਥੈ ਕਮਾਵੈ ਸੋ ਮਿਲੈ ਅਗੈ ਪਾਏ ਜਾਇ ॥੧॥

naanak ethai kamaavai so milai agai paae jai ||1||

O Nanak, whatever one does in this world, determines what he shall receive in the world hereafter. ||1||
