Soohee, Fifth Mehla:
ਬਹਤੀ ਜਾਤ ਕਦੇ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਨ ਧਾਰਤ ॥
bahatee jaat kadhe dhirasaT na dhaarat ||
Your life is slipping away, but you never even notice.
ਮਿਥਿਆ ਮੋਹ ਬੰਧਹਿ ਨਿਤ ਪਾਰਚ ॥੧॥
mithiaa moh ba(n)dheh nit paarach ||1||
You are constantly entangled in false attachments and conflicts. ||1||
ਮਾਧਵੇ ਭਜੁ ਦਿਨ ਨਿਤ ਰੈਣੀ ॥
maadhave bhaj dhin nit rainee ||
Meditate, vibrate constantly, day and night, on the Lord.
ਜਨਮੁ ਪਦਾਰਥੁ ਜੀਤਿ ਹਰਿ ਸਰਣੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
janam padhaarath jeet har saranee ||1|| rahaau ||
You shall be victorious in this priceless human life, in the Protection of the Lord’s Sanctuary. ||1||Pause||
ਕਰਤ ਬਿਕਾਰ ਦੋਊ ਕਰ ਝਾਰਤ ॥ ਰਾਮ ਰਤਨੁ ਰਿਦ ਤਿਲੁ ਨਹੀ ਧਾਰਤ ॥੨॥
karat bikaar dhouoo kar jhaarat || raam ratan ridh til nahee dhaarat ||2||
You eagerly commit sins and practice corruption, but you do not enshrine the jewel of the Lord’s Name within your heart, even for an instant. ||2||
ਭਰਣ ਪੋਖਣ ਸੰਗਿ ਅਉਧ ਬਿਹਾਣੀ ॥
bharan pokhan sa(n)g aaudh bihaanee ||
Feeding and pampering your body, your life is passing away,
ਜੈ ਜਗਦੀਸ ਕੀ ਗਤਿ ਨਹੀ ਜਾਣੀ ॥੩॥
jai jagadhees kee gat nahee jaanee ||3||
but you do not experience the state of victory of the Lord of the Universe. ||3||
ਸਰਣਿ ਸਮਰਥ ਅਗੋਚਰ ਸੁਆਮੀ ॥
saran samarath agochar suaamee ||
So enter the Sanctuary of the All-powerful, Unfathomable Lord and Master.
ਉਧਰੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਅੰਤਰਜਾਮੀ ॥੪॥੨੭॥੩੩॥
audhar naanak prabh a(n)tarajaamee ||4||27||33||
O God, O Searcher of hearts, please, save Nanak! ||4||27||33||
