ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਪ੍ਰਾਣ ਜੀਉ ਅਰਪਾਹਾ ॥
man tan paraan jee-o arpaahaa.
I dedicate my mind, body, breath of life and soul to God.
ਹਰਿ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਮਾਨੁ ਮੋਹੁ ਕਟਾਹਾਂ ॥੩॥
har simar simar maan moh kataahaaN. ||3||
Remembering the Lord in meditation, I have eradicated pride and emotional attachment. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I offer up all of me — my mind, my body, my breath, my very life — to the One.
And as I keep the One in mind, pride and clinging loosen their grip and fall away.
Giving your whole self to something good loosens the grip of pride.
man tan paraan jee-o arpaahaa — offering man, tan, praan, jee-o (mind, body, breath, soul). maan moh kataahaaN — cutting away maan (pride) and moh (attachment). Total offering dissolving ego.
