ਰਮਈਆ ਕੇ ਗੁਨ ਚੇਤਿ ਪਰਾਨੀ ॥

rameea ke gun chet paraanee |

Think of the Glory of the All-pervading Lord, O mortal;

ਕਵਨ ਮੂਲ ਤੇ ਕਵਨ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਾਨੀ ॥

kavan mool te kavan drisattaanee |

what is your origin, and what is your appearance?

ਜਿਨਿ ਤੂੰ ਸਾਜਿ ਸਵਾਰਿ ਸੀਗਾਰਿਆ ॥

jin toon saaj savaar seegaariaa |

He who fashioned, adorned and decorated you

ਗਰਭ ਅਗਨਿ ਮਹਿ ਜਿਨਹਿ ਉਬਾਰਿਆ ॥

garabh agan meh jineh ubaariaa |

in the fire of the womb, He preserved you.

ਬਾਰ ਬਿਵਸਥਾ ਤੁਝਹਿ ਪਿਆਰੈ ਦੂਧ ॥

baar bivasathaa tujheh piaarai doodh |

In your infancy, He gave you milk to drink.

ਭਰਿ ਜੋਬਨ ਭੋਜਨ ਸੁਖ ਸੂਧ ॥

bhar joban bhojan sukh soodh |

In the flower of your youth, He gave you food, pleasure and understanding.

ਬਿਰਧਿ ਭਇਆ ਊਪਰਿ ਸਾਕ ਸੈਨ ॥

biradh bheaa aoopar saak sain |

As you grow old, family and friends,

ਮੁਖਿ ਅਪਿਆਉ ਬੈਠ ਕਉ ਦੈਨ ॥

mukh apiaau baitth kau dain |

Are there to feed you as you rest.

ਇਹੁ ਨਿਰਗੁਨੁ ਗੁਨੁ ਕਛੂ ਨ ਬੂਝੈ ॥

eihu niragun gun kachhoo na boojhai |

This worthless person has not appreciated in the least, all the good deeds done for him.

ਬਖਸਿ ਲੇਹੁ ਤਉ ਨਾਨਕ ਸੀਝੈ ॥੧॥

bakhas lehu tau naanak seejhai |1|

If you bless him with forgiveness, O Nanak, only then will he be saved. ||1||
