Moko Taar Le
Lyrics
Mo kao ṯār le rāmā ṯār le.
Mai ajān jan ṯaribe na jāno bāp bīṯẖulā bāh ḏe. ||1|| rahāo.
Nar ṯe sur hoe jāṯ nimakẖ mai saṯgur buḏẖ sikẖlāī.
Nar ṯe upaj surag kao jīṯio so avkẖaḏẖ mai pāī. ||1||
Jap ṯap sanjam ḏẖaram na kamāiā. Sevā sāḏẖ na jāniā har rāiā. Kaho Nānak ham nīcẖ karammā. Saraṇ pare kī rākẖo sarmā. ||2||4||
Aasaa, Fifth Mehl:
This human body has been given to you. This is your chance to meet the Lord of the Universe. Nothing else will work.
Join the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy;
vibrate and meditate on the Jewel of the Naam. ||1||
Make every effort to cross over this terrifying world-ocean. You are squandering this life uselessly in the love of Maya. ||1||Pause||
I have not practiced meditation, self-discipline, self-restraint or righteous living. I have not served the Holy; I have not acknowledged the Lord, my King. Says Nanak, my actions are contemptible! O Lord, I seek Your Sanctuary; please, preserve my honor! ||2||4||
Singing oneness!
