ਲਜਾ ਕੁਲ ਅੰਕਸੁ ਅਉ ਗੁਰ ਜਨ ਸੀਲ ਡੀਲ ਕੁਲਾਬਧੂ ਬ੍ਰਤ ਕੈ ਪਤਿਬ੍ਰਤ ਕਹਾਵਈ ।
lajaa kul ankas aau gur jan seel ddeel kulaabadhoo brat kai patibrat kahaavee |

Because of the good of the family honour, displaying calm and tranquil behaviour before the elders of the house and following the right ethos expected of a married woman, a daughter-in-law of a good family is called faithful and virtuous.

ਦੁਸਟ ਸਭਾ ਸੰਜੋਗ ਅਧਮ ਅਸਾਧ ਸੰਗੁ ਬਹੁ ਬਿਬਿਚਾਰ ਧਾਰਿ ਗਨਕਾ ਬੁਲਾਵਈ ।
dusatt sabhaa sanjog adham asaadh sang bahu bibichaar dhaar ganakaa bulaavee |

A woman who keeps company of evil people, doing acts highly condemnable and indulging in licentious deeds is called a whore.

ਕੁਲਾਬਧੂ ਸੁਤ ਕੋ ਬਖਾਨੀਅਤ ਗੋਤ੍ਰਾਚਾਰ ਗਨਿਕਾ ਸੁਆਨ ਪਿਤਾ ਨਾਮੁ ਕੋ ਬਤਾਵਈ ।
kulaabadhoo sut ko bakhaaneeat gotraachaar ganikaa suaan pitaa naam ko bataavee |

The son of a virtuous woman furthers the family lineage but who can tell the name of the father of a whore's son.

ਦੁਰਮਤਿ ਲਾਗਿ ਜੈਸੇ ਕਾਗੁ ਬਨ ਬਨ ਫਿਰੈ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਹੰਸ ਏਕ ਟੇਕ ਜਸੁ ਭਾਵਈ ।੧੬੪।
duramat laag jaise kaag ban ban firai guramat hans ek ttek jas bhaavee |164|

As a self-willed person of crow-like temperament wanders all over, a Guru-oriented person of swan-like attitude enjoys respect by taking the refuge of Lords name as taught and initiated to him by his Guru. (164)
