ਕਵਨੁ ਜੋਗੁ ਕਉਨੁ ਗੵਾਨੁ ਧੵਾਨੁ ਕਵਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਉਸ੍ਤਤਿ ਕਰੀਐ ॥
kavan jog kaun gayaan dhayaan kavan bidh ustat kareeai |
What is the Yoga, what is the spiritual wisdom and meditation, and what is the way, to praise the Lord?
ਸਿਧ ਸਾਧਿਕ ਤੇਤੀਸ ਕੋਰਿ ਤਿਰੁ ਕੀਮ ਨ ਪਰੀਐ ॥
sidh saadhik tetees kor tir keem na pareeai |
The Siddhas and seekers and the three hundred thirty million gods cannot find even a tiny bit of the Lord's Value.
ਬ੍ਰਹਮਾਦਿਕ ਸਨਕਾਦਿ ਸੇਖ ਗੁਣ ਅੰਤੁ ਨ ਪਾਏ ॥
brahamaadik sanakaad sekh gun ant na paae |
Neither Brahma, nor Sanak, nor the thousand-headed serpent king can find the limits of His Glorious Virtues.
ਅਗਹੁ ਗਹਿਓ ਨਹੀ ਜਾਇ ਪੂਰਿ ਸ੍ਰਬ ਰਹਿਓ ਸਮਾਏ ॥
agahu gahio nahee jaae poor srab rahio samaae |
The Inapprehensible Lord cannot be apprehended. He is pervading and permeating amongst all.
ਜਿਹ ਕਾਟੀ ਸਿਲਕ ਦਯਾਲ ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਸੇਇ ਜਨ ਲਗੇ ਭਗਤੇ ॥
jih kaattee silak dayaal prabh see jan lage bhagate |
Those whom God has mercifully freed from their nooses - those humble beings are attached to His devotional worship.
ਹਰਿ ਗੁਰੁ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਜਿਨੑ ਪਰਸਿਓ ਤੇ ਇਤ ਉਤ ਸਦਾ ਮੁਕਤੇ ॥੮॥
har gur naanak jina parasio te it ut sadaa mukate |8|
Those who meet with the Lord through Guru Nanak are liberated forever, here and hereafter. ||8||
