ਧਨਾਸਰੀ ਮ: ੫ ॥

Dhhanasaree Ma 5 ||

Dhanaasaree, Fifth Mehl:

ਲਵੈ ਨ ਲਾਗਨ ਕਉ ਹੈ ਕਛੂਐ ਜਾ ਕਉ ਫਿਰਿ ਇਹੁ ਧਾਵੈ ॥

Lavai N Lagan Ko Hai Kashhooai Ja Ko Fir Eihu Dhhavai ||

Nothing which this mortal being runs after, can compare to it.

ਜਾ ਕਉ ਆਇਓ ਏਕੁ ਰਸਾ ॥ ਖਾਨ ਪਾਨ ਆਨ ਨਹੀ ਖੁਧਿਆ ਤਾ ਕੈ ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਬਸਾ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥

Ja Ko Aeiou Eaek Rasa || Khan Pan An Nehee Khudhhia Tha Kai Chith N Basa || Rehao ||

The desire to eat, to wear new clothes, and all other desires, do not abide in the mind of one who comes to know the subtle essence of the One Lord. ||Pause||

ਮਉਲਿਓ ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਹੋਇਓ ਹਰਿਆ ਏਕ ਬੂੰਦ ਜਿਨਿ ਪਾਈ ॥

Mouliou Man Than Hoeiou Haria Eaek Boondh Jin Paee ||

The mind and body blossom forth in abundance, when one receives even a drop of this Nectar.

ਬਰਨਿ ਨ ਸਾਕਉ ਉਸਤਤਿ ਤਾ ਕੀ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਕਹਣੁ ਨ ਜਾਈ ॥੨॥

Baran N Sako Ousathath Tha Kee Keemath Kehan N Jaee ||2||

I cannot express His glory; I cannot describe His worth. ||2||

ਘਾਲ ਨ ਮਿਲਿਓ ਸੇਵ ਨ ਮਿਲਿਓ ਮਿਲਿਓ ਆਇ ਅਚਿੰਤਾ ॥

Ghal N Miliou Saev N Miliou Miliou Ae Achintha ||

We cannot meet the Lord by our own efforts, nor can we meet Him through service; He comes and meets us spontaneously.

ਜਾ ਕਉ ਦਇਆ ਕਰੀ ਮੇਰੈ ਠਾਕੁਰਿ ਤਿਨਿ ਗੁਰਹਿ ਕਮਾਨੋ ਮੰਤਾ ॥੩॥

Ja Ko Dhaeia Karee Maerai Thakur Thin Gurehi Kamano Mantha ||3||

One who is blessed by my Lord Master's Grace, practices the Teachings of the Guru's Mantra. ||3||

ਦੀਨ ਦੈਆਲ ਸਦਾ ਕਿਰਪਾਲਾ ਸਰਬ ਜੀਆ ਪ੍ਰਤਿਪਾਲਾ ॥

Dheen Dhaial Sadha Kirapala Sarab Jeea Prathipala ||

He is merciful to the meek, always kind and compassionate; He cherishes and nurtures all beings.

ਓਤਿ ਪੋਤਿ ਨਾਨਕ ਸੰਗਿ ਰਵਿਆ ਜਿਉ ਮਾਤਾ ਬਾਲ ਗੁੋਪਾਲਾ ॥੪॥੭॥

Outh Poth Naanak Sang Ravia Jio Matha Bal Guopala ||4||7||

The Lord is mingled with Nanak, through and through; He cherishes him, like the mother her child. ||4||7||
