Pauree:
ਇਸੁ ਜੁਗ ਮਹਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨਿਧਾਨੁ ਹੈ ਨਾਮੋ ਨਾਲਿ ਚਲੈ ॥
eis jug meh naam nidhaan hai naamo naal chalai |
In this age, the Naam, the Name of the Lord, is the treasure. Only the Naam goes along in the end.
ਏਹੁ ਅਖੁਟੁ ਕਦੇ ਨ ਨਿਖੁਟਈ ਖਾਇ ਖਰਚਿਉ ਪਲੈ ॥
ehu akhutt kade na nikhuttee khaae kharachiau palai |
It is inexhaustible; it is never empty, no matter how much one may eat, consume or spend.
ਹਰਿ ਜਨ ਨੇੜਿ ਨ ਆਵਈ ਜਮਕੰਕਰ ਜਮਕਲੈ ॥
har jan nerr na aavee jamakankar jamakalai |
The Messenger of Death does not even approach the humble servant of the Lord.
ਸੇ ਸਾਹ ਸਚੇ ਵਣਜਾਰਿਆ ਜਿਨ ਹਰਿ ਧਨੁ ਪਲੈ ॥
se saah sache vanajaariaa jin har dhan palai |
They alone are the true bankers and traders, who have the wealth of the Lord in their laps.
ਹਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਤੇ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਈਐ ਜਾ ਆਪਿ ਹਰਿ ਘਲੈ ॥੧੫॥
har kirapaa te har paaeeai jaa aap har ghalai |15|
By the Lord's Mercy, one finds the Lord, only when the Lord Himself sends for him. ||15||
