ਸਲੋਕੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੨ ॥
salok mahalaa 2 |
Salok, Second Mehl:
ਚਾਕਰੁ ਲਗੈ ਚਾਕਰੀ ਨਾਲੇ ਗਾਰਬੁ ਵਾਦੁ ॥
chaakar lagai chaakaree naale gaarab vaad |
If a servant performs service, while being vain and argumentative,
ਗਲਾ ਕਰੇ ਘਣੇਰੀਆ ਖਸਮ ਨ ਪਾਏ ਸਾਦੁ ॥
galaa kare ghanereea khasam na paae saad |
he may talk as much as he wants, but he shall not be pleasing to his Master.
ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਇ ਸੇਵਾ ਕਰੇ ਤਾ ਕਿਛੁ ਪਾਏ ਮਾਨੁ ॥
aap gavaae sevaa kare taa kichh paae maan |
But if he eliminates his self-conceit and then performs service, he shall be honored.
ਨਾਨਕ ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਲਗਾ ਤਿਸੁ ਮਿਲੈ ਲਗਾ ਸੋ ਪਰਵਾਨੁ ॥੧॥
naanak jis no lagaa tis milai lagaa so paravaan |1|
O Nanak, if he merges with the one with whom he is attached, his attachment becomes acceptable. ||1||
