SriGranth.org dictionary entry is here but I can't figure out what the root word is so I can't dig up an English translation: http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gur...A8%B9%E0%A9%81
Many thanks for any help. | Ishna ji the following from Srigranth and I have added English word equivalents that I understand from Punjabi. Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Gurmukhi-Gurmukhi Dictionary
| (1) ਲਵੋ। Take
(2) (ਭਾਵ) ਸੰਭਾਲੋ, ਪ੍ਰਾਪਤ ਕਰੋ। Take care of; gain
(3) ਜਪੋ। Contemplate
(4) ਲਵੋ, ਧਾਰਨ ਕਰੋ, ਦੇਭਾਗੀ ਬਣੋ। Take; adopt; be fortunate to have
(5) ਲੈ ਜਾਓ। Take away
(6) ਲਵੋ, ਲੈਂਦੇ ਰਹੋ, ਖਾਂਦੇ ਰਹੋ। Take; keep taking; keep consuming
ਉਦਾਹਰਣ: ਆਤਮ ਰਾਮਲੇਹੁ ਪਰਿਵਾਣਿ॥ {ਗਉ ਕਬ, ਥਿਤੀ ੮:੨ (343)}। ਗੁਰ ਉਪਦੇਸੁ ਮਨੈ ਮਹਿ ਲੇਹੁ॥ {ਗਉ ੫, ੭੬, ੪:੨ (178)}। ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਲੇਹੁ ਤਰਹੁ ਭਵ ਦੁਤਰੁ ਮੁਕ
| Mahan Kosh Encyclopedia
| ਲਓ. Take
ਅੰਗੀਕਾਰ ਕਰੋ. Enjoin
ਦੇਖੋ, ਲੇਹੁ. "ਲੇਹੁ ਆਰਤੀ, ਹੋ ਪੁਰਖ ਨਿਰੰਜਨਾ !" (ਪ੍ਰਭਾ ਕਬੀਰ).
Mahan Kosh data provided by Bhai Baljinder Singh (RaraSahib Wale); See http://www.ik13.com

In the above " ਰਖਿ ਲੇਹੁ " in my understanding it translates into "keep me under your wings; keep me under your protection; protect me" and essence along these lines.
Hope it is of help.
Sat Sri Akal.
