paunai paanee aganee jeeo tin kiaa khuseea kiaa peerr |

Living beings are formed of air, water and fire. They are subject to pleasure and pain.

ਧਰਤੀ ਪਾਤਾਲੀ ਆਕਾਸੀ ਇਕਿ ਦਰਿ ਰਹਨਿ ਵਜੀਰ ॥
dharatee paataalee aakaasee ik dar rahan vajeer |

In this world, in the nether regions of the underworld, and in the Akaashic ethers of the heavens, some remain ministers in the Court of the Lord.

eikanaa vaddee aarajaa ik mar hohi jaheer |

Some live long lives, while others suffer and die.

ਇਕਿ ਦੇ ਖਾਹਿ ਨਿਖੁਟੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਇਕਿ ਸਦਾ ਫਿਰਹਿ ਫਕੀਰ ॥

Some give and consume, and still their wealth is not exhausted, while others remain poor forever.

ਹੁਕਮੀ ਸਾਜੇ ਹੁਕਮੀ ਢਾਹੇ ਏਕ ਚਸੇ ਮਹਿ ਲਖ ॥
hukamee saaje hukamee dtaahe ek chase meh lakh |

In His Will He creates, and in His Will He destroys thousands in an instant.

ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਨਥੈ ਨਥਿਆ ਬਖਸੇ ਤੋੜੇ ਨਥ ॥
sabh ko nathai nathiaa bakhase torre nath |

He has harnessed everyone with His harness; when He forgives, he breaks the harness.

ਵਰਨਾ ਚਿਹਨਾ ਬਾਹਰਾ ਲੇਖੇ ਬਾਝੁ ਅਲਖੁ ॥
varanaa chihanaa baaharaa lekhe baajh alakh |

He has no color or features; He is invisible and beyond calculation.

ਕਿਉ ਕਥੀਐ ਕਿਉ ਆਖੀਐ ਜਾਪੈ ਸਚੋ ਸਚੁ ॥
kiau katheeai kiau aakheeai jaapai sacho sach |

How can He be described? He is known as the Truest of the True.

ਕਰਣਾ ਕਥਨਾ ਕਾਰ ਸਭ ਨਾਨਕ ਆਪਿ ਅਕਥੁ ॥
karanaa kathanaa kaar sabh naanak aap akath |

All the actions which are done and described, O Nanak, are done by the Indescribable Lord Himself.

ਅਕਥ ਕੀ ਕਥਾ ਸੁਣੇਇ ॥
akath kee kathaa sunee |

Whoever hears the description of the indescribable,

ਰਿਧਿ ਬੁਧਿ ਸਿਧਿ ਗਿਆਨੁ ਸਦਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਹੋਇ ॥੧॥

Remaining dead while yet alive, he is accepted and approved.

ਹੁਕਮੈ ਬੂਝੈ ਤਤੁ ਪਛਾਣੈ ॥

Whoever understands the Hukam of the Lord's Command, realizes the essence of reality.

ਇਹੁ ਪਰਸਾਦੁ ਗੁਰੂ ਤੇ ਜਾਣੈ ॥
eihu parasaad guroo te jaanai |

This is known by Guru's Grace.

ਹੋਂਦਾ ਫੜੀਅਗੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਜਾਣੁ ॥
hondaa farreeag naanak jaan |

O Nanak, know this: egotism leads to bondage.

ਨਾ ਹਉ ਨਾ ਮੈ ਜੂਨੀ ਪਾਣੁ ॥੨॥

chale naam visaar taavan tatiaa |

Those who depart from this world, forgetting the Naam, shall be roasted in the frying pan.

ਬਲਦੀ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਤੇਲੁ ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਘਤਿਆ ॥
baladee andar tel dubidhaa ghatiaa |

They pour the oil of duality within, and burn.

ਆਇਆ ਉਠੀ ਖੇਲੁ ਫਿਰੈ ਉਵਤਿਆ ॥
aaeaa utthee khel firai uvatiaa |

They come into the world and wander around aimlessly; they depart when the play is finished.

He comes out of the womb of flesh, and takes a mouthful of flesh at the breast.

ਮੁਹੁ ਮਾਸੈ ਕਾ ਜੀਭ ਮਾਸੈ ਕੀ ਮਾਸੈ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਸਾਸੁ ॥
muhu maasai kaa jeebh maasai kee maasai andar saas |

His mouth is flesh, his tongue is flesh; his breath is in the flesh.

ਵਡਾ ਹੋਆ ਵੀਆਹਿਆ ਘਰਿ ਲੈ ਆਇਆ ਮਾਸੁ ॥
vaddaa hoaa veeaahiaa ghar lai aaeaa maas |

He grows up and is married, and brings his wife of flesh into his home.

ਮਾਸਹੁ ਹੀ ਮਾਸੁ ਊਪਜੈ ਮਾਸਹੁ ਸਭੋ ਸਾਕੁ ॥
maasahu hee maas aoopajai maasahu sabho saak |

Flesh is produced from flesh; all relatives are made of flesh.

ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਮਿਲਿਐ ਹੁਕਮੁ ਬੁਝੀਐ ਤਾਂ ਕੋ ਆਵੈ ਰਾਸਿ ॥
satigur miliaai hukam bujheeai taan ko aavai raas |

When the mortal meets the True Guru, and realizes the Hukam of the Lord's Command, then he comes to be reformed.

ਆਪਿ ਛੁਟੇ ਨਹ ਛੂਟੀਐ ਨਾਨਕ ਬਚਨਿ ਬਿਣਾਸੁ ॥੧॥

Releasing himself, the mortal does not find release; O Nanak, through empty words, one is ruined. ||1||

The fools argue about flesh and meat, but they know nothing about meditation and spiritual wisdom.

ਕਉਣੁ ਮਾਸੁ ਕਉਣੁ ਸਾਗੁ ਕਹਾਵੈ ਕਿਸੁ ਮਹਿ ਪਾਪ ਸਮਾਣੇ ॥
kaun maas kaun saag kahaavai kis meh paap samaane |

What is called meat, and what is called green vegetables? What leads to sin?

ਗੈਂਡਾ ਮਾਰਿ ਹੋਮ ਜਗ ਕੀਏ ਦੇਵਤਿਆ ਕੀ ਬਾਣੇ ॥
gainddaa maar hom jag kee devatiaa kee baane |

It was the habit of the gods to kill the rhinoceros, and make a feast of the burnt offering.

Those who renounce meat, and hold their noses when sitting near it, devour men at night.

ਫੜੁ ਕਰਿ ਲੋਕਾਂ ਨੋ ਦਿਖਲਾਵਹਿ ਗਿਆਨੁ ਧਿਆਨੁ ਨਹੀ ਸੂਝੈ ॥
farr kar lokaan no dikhalaaveh giaan dhiaan nahee soojhai |

They practice hypocrisy, and make a show before other people, but they do not understand anything about meditation or spiritual wisdom.

ਨਾਨਕ ਅੰਧੇ ਸਿਉ ਕਿਆ ਕਹੀਐ ਕਹੈ ਨ ਕਹਿਆ ਬੂਝੈ ॥
naanak andhe siau kiaa kaheeai kahai na kahiaa boojhai |

O Nanak, what can be said to the blind people? They cannot answer, or even understand what is said.

ਅੰਧਾ ਸੋਇ ਜਿ ਅੰਧੁ ਕਮਾਵੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਰਿਦੈ ਸਿ ਲੋਚਨ ਨਾਹੀ ॥
andhaa soe ji andh kamaavai tis ridai si lochan naahee |

They alone are blind, who act blindly. They have no eyes in their hearts.

ਮਾਤ ਪਿਤਾ ਕੀ ਰਕਤੁ ਨਿਪੰਨੇ ਮਛੀ ਮਾਸੁ ਨ ਖਾਂਹੀ ॥
