The mind wanders, wandering in the ten directions.

He runs around chasing the fleeting objects of the world, in all directions, like the ox around the oil press. ||2||

He does not practice the Naam, the Name of the Lord; nor does he practice charity or inner cleansing.

naanaa jhooTh lai man tokhio neh boojhio apanaio ||3||

He does not sing the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises, even for an instant. Clinging to his many falsehoods, he does not please his own mind, and he does not understand his own self. ||3||

I offer my prayer in the Saadh Sangat; hearing that the Lord is the Lover of His devotees, I have come.

naanak bhaag pario har paachhai raakh laaj apunaio ||5||1||3||
