Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas Ji

ਜੈਸੇ ਕਰਪੂਰ ਮੈ ਉਡਤ ਕੋ ਸੁਭਾਉ ਤਾ ਤੇ ਅਉਰ ਬਾਸਨਾ ਨ ਤਾ ਕੈ ਆਗੈ ਠਹਾਰਵਈ ।
jaise karapoor mai uddat ko subhaau taa te aaur baasanaa na taa kai aagai tthahaaravee |

As the fragrance of camphor has the characteristic of spreading in the air, thus its smell cannot remain lodged in anything;

ਚੰਦਨ ਸੁਬਾਸ ਕੈ ਸੁਬਾਸਨਾ ਬਨਾਸਪਤੀ ਤਾਹੀ ਤੇ ਸੁਗੰਧਤਾ ਸਕਲ ਸੈ ਸਮਾਵਈ ।
chandan subaas kai subaasanaa banaasapatee taahee te sugandhataa sakal sai samaavee |

But vegetation around a Sandalwood tree become equally fragrant with the aroma released but it;

ਜੈਸੇ ਜਲ ਮਿਲਤ ਸ੍ਰਬੰਗ ਸੰਗ ਰੰਗੁ ਰਾਖੈ ਅਗਨ ਜਰਾਇ ਸਬ ਰੰਗਨੁ ਮਿਟਾਵਈ ।
jaise jal milat srabang sang rang raakhai agan jaraae sab rangan mittaavee |

As water acquires the same colour that is mixed in it, but fire destroys all the colours by burning them (into ashes);

ਜੈਸੇ ਰਵਿ ਸਸਿ ਸਿਵ ਸਕਤ ਸੁਭਾਵ ਗਤਿ ਸੰਜੋਗੀ ਬਿਓਗੀ ਦ੍ਰਿਸਟਾਤੁ ਕੈ ਦਿਖਾਵਈ ।੧੩੪।
jaise rav sas siv sakat subhaav gat sanjogee biogee drisattaat kai dikhaavee |134|

Just as the effect of Sun is undesirable (Tamoguni) while the moon has virtuous effect, similarly a Guru-conscious person behaves peacefully and virtuously while a self willed and apostate person caught in the evil effects of mammon is conspicuous. (134)
