ਸਤਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਸੰਜਮੁ ਨ ਪਤਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਪੂਜਾ ਹੋਇ ਸਚ ਬਿਨੁ ਸੋਚ ਨ ਜਨੇਊ ਜਤ ਹੀਨ ਹੈ ।

sat bin sanjam na pat bin poojaa hoe sach bin soch na janeaoo jat heen hai |

Except the name of the stable and firm Lord, no other deed is righteous. Except for the prayer and worship of Master Lord, worship of gods/goddesses is futile. No piety is beyond the truth and wearing of sacred thread without morality is futile.

ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਦੀਖਿਆ ਗਿਆਨ ਬਿਨੁ ਦਰਸਨ ਧਿਆਨ ਭਾਉ ਬਿਨੁ ਭਗਤਿ ਨ ਕਥਨੀ ਭੈ ਭੀਨ ਹੈ ।

bin gur deekhiaa giaan bin darasan dhiaan bhaau bin bhagat na kathanee bhai bheen hai |

Without obtaining initiation from a True Guru, no knowledge is worthwhile. No contemplation is useful except that of the True Guru. No worship is worth anything if not performed love, nor any view point expressed can invite respect.

ਸਾਂਤਿ ਨ ਸੰਤੋਖ ਬਿਨੁ ਸੁਖੁ ਨ ਸਹਜ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਬਦ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਬਿਨੁ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਨ ਪ੍ਰਬੀਨ ਹੈ ।

saant na santokh bin sukh na sahaj bin sabad surat bin prem na prabeen hai |

Without patience and contentment, peace cannot reside. No true peace and comfort is achievable without acquiring a state of equipoise. Similarly no love can be stable without the union of the word and mind (consciousness).

ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਬਿਬੇਕ ਬਿਨੁ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਨ ਏਕ ਟੇਕ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਾਧਸੰਗਤ ਨ ਰੰਗ ਲਿਵ ਲੀਨ ਹੈ ।੨੧੫।

braham bibek bin hiradai na ek ttek bin saadhasangat na rang liv leen hai |215|

Without deliberation on His name, one cannot establish faith in the heart and without the holy congregation of divine and saintly persons, engrossment in Lord's name is not possible. (215)
