ਰਹ੝ ਰਹ੝ ਰੀ ਬਹ੝ਰੀਆ ਘੂੰਘਟ੝ ਜਿਨਿ ਕਾਢੈ ॥ ਅੰਤ ਕੀ ਬਾਰ ਲਹੈਗੀ ਨ ਆਢੈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
Rahu rahu rī bahurī­ĝ gẖūngẖat jin kĝdẖai. Anṯ kī bĝr lahaigī na ĝdẖai. ॥1॥ rahĝ­o.
Stay, stay, O daughter-in-law - do not cover your face with a veil. In the end, this shall not bring you even half a shell. ॥1॥Pause॥


ਲਾਜ ਮਰੰਤੀ ਮਰਿ ਗਈ ਘੂਘਟ੝ ਖੋਲਿ ਚਲੀ ॥ ਸਾਸ੝ ਦਿਵਾਨੀ ਬਾਵਰੀ ਸਿਰ ਤੇ ਸੰਕ ਟਲੀ ॥

ਪ੝ਰੇਮਿ ਬ੝ਲਾਈ ਰਲੀ ਸਿਉ ਮਨ ਮਹਿ ਸਬਦ੝ ਅਨੰਦ੝ ॥ ਲਾਲਿ ਰਤੀ ਲਾਲੀ ਭਈ ਗ੝ਰਮ੝ਖਿ ਭਈ ਨਿਚਿੰਦ੝ ॥੧੨॥

Lĝj maranṯī mar ga­ī gẖūgẖat kẖol cẖalī. Sĝs ḝivĝnī bĝvrī sir ṯė sank talī.

Parėm bulĝ­ī ralī si­o man meh sabaḝ anand. Lĝl raṯī lĝlī bẖa­ī gurmukẖ bẖa­ī nicẖinḝ. ॥12॥

My shyness and hesitation have died and gone, and I walk with my face unveiled.

The confusion and doubt from my crazy, insane mother-in-law has been removed from over my head.
My Beloved has summoned me with joyful caresses; my mind is filled with the bliss of the Shabad.
Imbued with the Love of my Beloved, I have become Gurmukh, and carefree.॥12॥
