Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas Ji

Page - 199


ਨਿਹਫਲ ਜਿਹਬਾ ਹੈ ਸਬਦ ਸੁਆਦਿ ਹੀਨ ਨਿਹਫਲ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਨ ਅਨਹਦ ਨਾਦ ਹੈ ।
nihafal jihabaa hai sabad suaad heen nihafal surat na anahad naad hai |

A tongue without savouring the elixir-like Naam and ears that are without hearing the unstruck melody of recitation of Lord's name are useless and vain.

ਨਿਹਫਲ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਨ ਆਪਾ ਆਪੁ ਦੇਖੀਅਤਿ ਨਿਹਫਲ ਸੁਆਸ ਨਹੀ ਬਾਸੁ ਪਰਮਾਦੁ ਹੈ ।
nihafal drisatt na aapaa aap dekheeat nihafal suaas nahee baas paramaad hai |

The eyes that do not see the true vision of thyself and the breaths that do not smell of Lord's fragrance are no good either.

ਨਿਹਫਲ ਕਰ ਗੁਰ ਪਾਰਸ ਪਰਸ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਮਾਰਗ ਬਿਹੂਨ ਪਗ ਬਾਦਿ ਹੈ ।
nihafal kar gur paaras paras bin guramukh maarag bihoon pag baad hai |

The hands that have not touched the philosopher-stone like feet of the True Guru are of no use. Those feet which have not treaded towards the door of the True Guru are no good either.

ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਅੰਗ ਅੰਗ ਪੰਗ ਸਰਬੰਗ ਲਿਵ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਸਾਧ ਸੰਗਤਿ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ਹੈ ।੧੯੯।
guramukh ang ang pang sarabang liv drisatt surat saadh sangat prasaad hai |199|

Every limb of the Sikhs who are obedient to the True Guru are pious. By the grace of the company of holy people, their mind and vision remains focused in meditation on Naam and glimpse of the True Guru. (199)
