ਇਹ ਬਿਧਿ ਹੈ ਮਨੁ ਜੋਗਨੀ ॥
ih biDh hai man jognee.
This is how I have joined my mind to the Lord.
ਮੋਹੁ ਸੋਗੁ ਰੋਗੁ ਲੋਗੁ ਨ ਬਿਆਪੈ ਤਹ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਰਸ ਭੋਗਨੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
moh sog rog log na bi-aapai tah har har har ras bhognee. ||1|| rahaa-o.
Attachment, sorrow, disease and public opinion do not affect me, and so, I enjoy the subtle essence of the Lord, Har, Har, Har. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
This is how I have joined my mind to the One.
Clinging, sadness, sickness and what people think do not grab hold of me, and so I enjoy the sweet taste of the One, Har, Har, Har.
A yoga of the heart is a mind joined to the One — free from needing everyone's approval.
A mind joined to the One is a yoga of the heart.
This is the rahaa-o, the pause line. It takes the word yoga inward: man jognee, union as the mind joined to the One. Log, public opinion, is among the things that no longer bind. What remains is har ras, the sweet essence.
