ਮ: ੧ ॥

Ma 1 ||

First Mehl:

ਜਿਉ ਜੋਰੂ ਸਿਰਨਾਵਣੀ ਆਵੈ ਵਾਰੋ ਵਾਰ ॥

Jio Joroo Siranavanee Avai Varo Var ||

As a woman has her periods, month after month,

ਜੂਠੇ ਜੂਠਾ ਮੁਖਿ ਵਸੈ ਨਿਤ ਨਿਤ ਹੋਇ ਖੁਆਰੁ ॥

Joothae Jootha Mukh Vasai Nith Nith Hoe Khuar ||

So does falsehood dwell in the mouth of the false; they suffer forever, again and again.

ਸੂਚੇ ਏਹਿ ਨ ਆਖੀਅਹਿ ਬਹਨਿ ਜਿ ਪਿੰਡਾ ਧੋਇ ॥

Soochae Eaehi N Akheeahi Behan J Pindda Dhhoe ||

They are not called pure, who sit down after merely washing their bodies.

ਸੂਚੇ ਸੇਈ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਜਿਨ ਮਨਿ ਵਸਿਆ ਸੋਇ ॥੨॥

Soochae Saeee Naanaka Jin Man Vasia Soe ||2||

Only they are pure, O Nanak, within whose minds the Lord abides. ||2||
