ਸਲੋਕ ਮਃ ੩ ॥
salok mahalaa 3 |
Salok, Third Mehl:
ਇਹੁ ਤਨੁ ਸਭੋ ਰਤੁ ਹੈ ਰਤੁ ਬਿਨੁ ਤੰਨੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥
eihu tan sabho rat hai rat bin tan na hoe |
This body is all blood; without blood, the body cannot exist.
ਜੋ ਸਹਿ ਰਤੇ ਆਪਣੈ ਤਿਨ ਤਨਿ ਲੋਭ ਰਤੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥
jo seh rate aapanai tin tan lobh rat na hoe |
Those who are attuned to their Lord - their bodies are not filled with the blood of greed.
ਭੈ ਪਇਐ ਤਨੁ ਖੀਣੁ ਹੋਇ ਲੋਭ ਰਤੁ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਜਾਇ ॥
bhai peiai tan kheen hoe lobh rat vichahu jaae |
In the Fear of God, the body becomes thin, and the blood of greed passes out of the body.
Ang 950
ਜਿਉ ਬੈਸੰਤਰਿ ਧਾਤੁ ਸੁਧੁ ਹੋਇ ਤਿਉ ਹਰਿ ਕਾ ਭਉ ਦੁਰਮਤਿ ਮੈਲੁ ਗਵਾਇ ॥
jiau baisantar dhaat sudh hoe tiau har kaa bhau duramat mail gavaae |
As fire purifies metal, so does the Fear of the Lord eradicate the filth of evil-mindedness.
ਨਾਨਕ ਤੇ ਜਨ ਸੋਹਣੇ ਜੋ ਰਤੇ ਹਰਿ ਰੰਗੁ ਲਾਇ ॥੧॥
naanak te jan sohane jo rate har rang laae |1|
O Nanak, beautiful are those humble beings, who are imbued with the Lord's Love. ||1||
