ਪਉੜੀ ॥
paurree |
Pauree:
ਚਾਕਰੁ ਲਗੈ ਚਾਕਰੀ ਜੇ ਚਲੈ ਖਸਮੈ ਭਾਇ ॥
chaakar lagai chaakaree je chalai khasamai bhaae |
If a servant, performing service, obeys the Will of his Master,
ਹੁਰਮਤਿ ਤਿਸ ਨੋ ਅਗਲੀ ਓਹੁ ਵਜਹੁ ਭਿ ਦੂਣਾ ਖਾਇ ॥
huramat tis no agalee ohu vajahu bhi doonaa khaae |
his honor increases, and he receives double his wages.
ਖਸਮੈ ਕਰੇ ਬਰਾਬਰੀ ਫਿਰਿ ਗੈਰਤਿ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਇ ॥
khasamai kare baraabaree fir gairat andar paae |
But if he claims to be equal to his Master, he earns his Master's displeasure.
ਵਜਹੁ ਗਵਾਏ ਅਗਲਾ ਮੁਹੇ ਮੁਹਿ ਪਾਣਾ ਖਾਇ ॥
vajahu gavaae agalaa muhe muhi paanaa khaae |
He loses his entire salary, and is also beaten on his face with shoes.
ਜਿਸ ਦਾ ਦਿਤਾ ਖਾਵਣਾ ਤਿਸੁ ਕਹੀਐ ਸਾਬਾਸਿ ॥
jis daa ditaa khaavanaa tis kaheeai saabaas |
Let us all celebrate Him, from whom we receive our nourishment.
ਨਾਨਕ ਹੁਕਮੁ ਨ ਚਲਈ ਨਾਲਿ ਖਸਮ ਚਲੈ ਅਰਦਾਸਿ ॥੨੨॥
naanak hukam na chalee naal khasam chalai aradaas |22|
O Nanak, no one can issue commands to the Lord Master; let us offer prayers instead. ||22||
