ਵਡਹੰਸੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ਘਰੁ ੨ ॥

Vaddehans Mehala 1 Ghar 2 ||

Wadahans, First Mehl, Second House:

ਮੋਰੀ ਰੁਣ ਝੁਣ ਲਾਇਆ ਭੈਣੇ ਸਾਵਣੁ ਆਇਆ ॥

Moree Run Jhun Laeia Bhainae Savan Aeia ||

The peacocks are singing so sweetly, O sister; the rainy season of Saawan has come.

ਤੇਰੇ ਮੁੰਧ ਕਟਾਰੇ ਜੇਵਡਾ ਤਿਨਿ ਲੋਭੀ ਲੋਭ ਲੁਭਾਇਆ ॥

Thaerae Mundhh Kattarae Jaevadda Thin Lobhee Lobh Lubhaeia ||

Your beauteous eyes are like a string of charms, fascinating and enticing the soul-bride.

ਤੇਰੇ ਦਰਸਨ ਵਿਟਹੁ ਖੰਨੀਐ ਵੰਾ ਤੇਰੇ ਨਾਮ ਵਿਟਹੁ ਕੁਰਬਾਣੋ ॥

Thaerae Dharasan Vittahu Khanneeai Vannja Thaerae Nam Vittahu Kurabano ||

I would cut myself into pieces for the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan; I am a sacrifice to Your Name.

ਜਾ ਤੂ ਤਾ ਮੈ ਮਾਣੁ ਕੀਆ ਹੈ ਤੁਧੁ ਬਿਨੁ ਕੇਹਾ ਮੇਰਾ ਮਾਣੋ ॥

Ja Thoo Tha Mai Man Keea Hai Thudhh Bin Kaeha Maera Mano ||

I take pride in You; without You, what could I be proud of?

ਚੂੜਾ ਭੰਨੁ ਪਲੰਘ ਸਿਉ ਮੁੰਧੇ ਸਣੁ ਬਾਹੀ ਸਣੁ ਬਾਹਾ ॥

Choorra Bhann Palangh Sio Mundhhae San Bahee San Baha ||

So smash your bracelets along with your bed, O soul-bride, and break your arms, along with the arms of your couch.

ਏਤੇ ਵੇਸ ਕਰੇਦੀਏ ਮੁੰਧੇ ਸਹੁ ਰਾਤੋ ਅਵਰਾਹਾ ॥

Eaethae Vaes Karaedheeeae Mundhhae Sahu Ratho Avaraha ||

In spite of all the decorations which you have made, O soul-bride, your Husband Lord is enjoying someone else.

ਨਾ ਮਨੀਆਰੁ ਨ ਚੂੜੀਆ ਨਾ ਸੇ ਵੰਗੁੜੀਆਹਾ ॥

Na Maneear N Choorreea Na Sae Vangurreeaha ||

You don't have the bracelets of gold, nor the good crystal jewelry; you haven't dealt with the true jeweller.

ਜੋ ਸਹ ਕੰਠਿ ਨ ਲਗੀਆ ਜਲਨੁ ਸਿ ਬਾਹੜੀਆਹਾ ॥

Jo Seh Kanth N Lageea Jalan S Baharreeaha ||

Those arms, which do not embrace the neck of the Husband Lord, burn in anguish.

ਅੰਮਾਲੀ ਹਉ ਖਰੀ ਸੁਚਜੀ ਤੈ ਸਹ ਏਕਿ ਨ ਭਾਵਾ ॥

Anmalee Ho Kharee Suchajee Thai Seh Eaek N Bhava ||

O friend, I may look very attractive, but I am not pleasing to my Husband Lord at all.

ਮਾਠਿ ਗੁੰਦਾਈ ਪਟੀਆ ਭਰੀਐ ਮਾਗ ਸੰਧੂਰੇ ॥

Math Gundhaeanaee Patteea Bhareeai Mag Sandhhoorae ||

I have woven my hair into lovely braids, and saturated their partings with vermillion;

ਅਗੈ ਗਈ ਨ ਮੰਨੀਆ ਮਰਉ ਵਿਸੂਰਿ ਵਿਸੂਰੇ ॥

Agai Gee N Manneea Maro Visoor Visoorae ||

But when I go before Him, I am not accepted, and I die, suffering in anguish.

ਮੈ ਰੋਵੰਦੀ ਸਭੁ ਜਗੁ ਰੁਨਾ ਰੁੰਨੜੇ ਵਣਹੁ ਪੰਖੇਰੂ ॥

Mai Rovandhee Sabh Jag Runa Runnarrae Vanahu Pankhaeroo ||

I weep; the whole world weeps; even the birds of the forest weep with me.

ਇਕੁ ਨ ਰੁਨਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਤਨ ਕਾ ਬਿਰਹਾ ਜਿਨਿ ਹਉ ਪਿਰਹੁ ਵਿਛੋੜੀ ॥

Eik N Runa Maerae Than Ka Bireha Jin Ho Pirahu Vishhorree ||

The only thing which doesn't weep is my body's sense of separateness, which has separated me from my Lord.

ਸੁਪਨੈ ਆਇਆ ਭੀ ਗਇਆ ਮੈ ਜਲੁ ਭਰਿਆ ਰੋਇ ॥

Supanai Aeia Bhee Gaeia Mai Jal Bharia Roe ||

In a dream, He came, and went away again; I cried so many tears.

ਆਇ ਨ ਸਕਾ ਤੁਝ ਕਨਿ ਪਿਆਰੇ ਭੇਜਿ ਨ ਸਕਾ ਕੋਇ ॥

Ae N Saka Thujh Kan Piarae Bhaej N Saka Koe ||

I can't come to You, O my Beloved, and I can't send anyone to You.

ਆਉ ਸਭਾਗੀ ਨੀਦੜੀਏ ਮਤੁ ਸਹੁ ਦੇਖਾ ਸੋਇ ॥

Ao Sabhagee Needharreeeae Math Sahu Dhaekha Soe ||

Come to me, O blessed sleep - perhaps I will see my Husband Lord again.

ਤੈ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਕੀ ਬਾਤ ਜਿ ਆਖੈ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਕਿਆ ਦੀਜੈ ॥

Thai Sahib Kee Bath J Akhai Kahu Naanak Kia Dheejai ||

One who brings me a message from my Lord and Master - says Nanak, what shall I give to Him?

ਸੀਸੁ ਵਢੇ ਕਰਿ ਬੈਸਣੁ ਦੀਜੈ ਵਿਣੁ ਸਿਰ ਸੇਵ ਕਰੀਜੈ ॥

Sees Vadtae Kar Baisan Dheejai Vin Sir Saev Kareejai ||

Cutting off my head, I give it to Him to sit upon; without my head, I shall still serve Him.

ਕਿਉ ਨ ਮਰੀਜੈ ਜੀਅੜਾ ਨ ਦੀਜੈ ਜਾ ਸਹੁ ਭਇਆ ਵਿਡਾਣਾ ॥੧॥੩॥

Kio N Mareejai Jeearra N Dheejai Ja Sahu Bhaeia Viddana ||1||3||

Why haven't I died? Why hasn't my life just ended? My Husband Lord has become a stranger to me. ||1||3||
