Third Mehl:

O people: I am in red, dressed in a red robe.

But my Husband Lord is not obtained by any robes; I have tried and tried, and given up wearing robes.

O Nanak, they alone obtain their Husband Lord, who listen to the Guru's Teachings.

Whatever pleases Him, happens. In this way, the Husband Lord is met. ||2||

Section 19 - Raag Soohee - Part 059

Pauree:

By His Command, He created the creation, the world with its many species of beings.

I do not know how great Your Command is, O Unseen and Infinite True Lord.

You join some with Yourself; they reflect on the Word of the Guru's Shabad.

Those who are imbued with the True Lord are immaculate and pure; they conquer egotism and corruption.

He alone is united with You, whom You unite with Yourself; he alone is true. ||2||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

O red-robed woman, the whole world is red, engrossed in evil-mindedness and the love of duality.

In an instant, this falsehood totally vanishes; like the shade of a tree, it is gone.

The Gurmukh is the deepest crimson of crimson, dyed in the permanent color of the Lord's Love.

She turns away from Maya, and enters the celestial home of the Lord; the Ambrosial Name of the Lord dwells within her mind.

O Nanak, I am a sacrifice to my Guru; meeting Him, I sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ||1||

Third Mehl:

The red color is vain and useless; it cannot help you obtain your Husband Lord.

This color does not take long to fade; she who loves duality, ends up a widow.

She who loves to wear her red dress is foolish and double-minded.

So make the True Word of the Shabad your red dress, and let the Fear of God, and the Love of God, be your ornaments and decorations.

O Nanak, she is a happy soul-bride forever, who walks in harmony with the Will of the True Guru. ||2||

Pauree:

He Himself created Himself, and He Himself evaluates Himself.

His limits cannot be known; through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, He is understood.

In the darkness of attachment to Maya, the world wanders in duality.

The self-willed manmukhs find no place of rest; they continue coming and going.

Whatever pleases Him, that alone happens. All walk according to His Will. ||3||

Shalok, Third Mehl:

The red-robed bride is vicious; she forsakes God, and cultivates love for another man.

She has neither modesty or self-discipline; the self-willed manmukh constantly tells lies, and is ruined by the bad karma of evil deeds.

She who has such pre-ordained destiny, obtains the True Guru has her Husband.

She discards all her red dresses, and wears the ornaments of mercy and forgiveness around her neck.

In this world and the next, she receives great honor, and the whole world worships her.
