ਹਰਿ ਜੇਠਿ ਜੜੰਦਾ ਲੋੜੀਝ ਜਿਸ ਅਗੈ ਸਭਿ ਨਿਵੰਨਿ ॥
ਹਰਿ ਸਜਣ ਦਾਵਣਿ ਲਗਿਆ ਕਿਸੈ ਨ ਦੇਈ ਬੰਨਿ ॥
ਮਾਣਕ ਮੋਤੀ ਨਾਮ ਪਰਭ ਉਨ ਲਗੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਸੰਨਿ ॥
ਰੰਗ ਸਭੇ ਨਾਰਾਇਣੈ ਜੇਤੇ ਮਨਿ ਭਾਵੰਨਿ ॥
ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਲੋੜੇ ਸੋ ਕਰੇ ਸੋਈ ਜੀਅ ਕਰੰਨਿ ॥
ਜੋ ਪਰਭਿ ਕੀਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਸੇਈ ਕਹੀਅਹਿ ਧੰਨਿ ॥
ਆਪਣ ਲੀਆ ਜੇ ਮਿਲੈ ਵਿਛੜਿ ਕਿਉ ਰੋਵੰਨਿ ॥
ਸਾਧੂ ਸੰਗ ਪਰਾਪਤੇ ਨਾਨਕ ਰੰਗ ਮਾਣੰਨਿ ॥
ਹਰਿ ਜੇਠ ਰੰਗੀਲਾ ਤਿਸ ਧਣੀ ਜਿਸ ਕੈ ਭਾਗ ਮਥੰਨਿ ॥4॥

In the month of Jayt'h, the bride longs to meet with the Lord. All bow in humility before Him.
One who has grasped the hem of the robe of the Lord, the True Friend-no one can keep him in bondage.
God's Name is the Jewel, the Pearl. It cannot be stolen or taken away.
In the Lord are all pleasures which please the mind.
As the Lord wishes, so He acts, and so His creatures act.
They alone are called blessed, whom God has made His Own.
If people could meet the Lord by their own efforts, why would they be crying out in the pain of separation?
Meeting Him in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, O Nanak, celestial bliss is enjoyed.
In the month of Jayt'h, the playful Husband Lord meets her, upon whose forehead such good destiny is recorded. ||4||
