Infatuated with Maya, night and day, he sees only the worldly path; he does not chant the Naam, and drinking poison, he dies. ganDhan vain rataa hitkaaree sabdai surat na aa-ee. He is imbued and infatuated with vicious talk; the Word of the Shabad does not come into his consciousness. rang na raataa ras nahee bayDhi-aa manmukh pat gavaa-ee. 2 He is not imbued with the Lord s Love, and he is not impressed by the taste of the Name; the self-willed manmukh loses his honor. 2 saaDh sabhaa meh sahj na chaakhi-aa jihbaa ras nahee raa-ee. He does not enjoy celestial peace in the Company of the Holy, and there is not even a bit of sweetness on his tongue. man tan Dhan apunaa kar jaani-aa dar kee khabar na paa-ee. He calls his mind, body and wealth his own; he has no knowledge of the Court of the Lord. akhee meet chali-aa anDhi-aaraa ghar dar disai na bhaa-ee.
