ਕਪਟ ਸਨੇਹ ਜੈਸੇ ਢੋਕਲੀ ਨਿਵਾਵੈ ਸੀਸੁ ਤਾ ਕੈ ਬਸਿ ਹੋਇ ਜਲੁ ਬੰਧਨ ਮੈ ਆਵਈ ।
kapatt saneh jaise dtokalee nivaavai sees taa kai bas hoe jal bandhan mai aavee |Just as Dhekuli (an improvised bag like contraption made of leather in which a long log is used as a lever to drag water from shallow wells) bends displaying false humility seeing which the water is entrapped in its love;
ਡਾਰਿ ਦੇਤ ਖੇਤ ਹੁਇ ਪ੍ਰਫੁਲਿਤ ਸਫਲ ਤਾ ਤੇ ਆਪਿ ਨਿਹਫਲ ਪਾਛੇ ਬੋਝ ਉਕਤਾਵਈ ।
ddaar det khet hue prafulit safal taa te aap nihafal paachhe bojh ukataavee |It spills the water in the field and as a result of benevolent nature of the water, the crop becomes green and fruit bearing, but Dhekuli of fake humility remains empty and itself lifting its own weight;
ਅਰਧ ਉਰਧ ਹੁਇ ਅਨੁਕ੍ਰਮ ਕੈ ਪਰਉਪਕਾਰ ਅਉ ਬਿਕਾਰ ਨ ਮਿਟਾਵਈ ।
aradh uradh hue anukram kai praupakaar aau bikaar na mittaavee |Thus the Dhekuli keeps going up and down continuo the water does not shed its benevolent nature nor does Dhekuli leave its nature of displaying fake love.
ਤੈਸੇ ਹੀ ਅਸਾਧ ਸਾਧ ਸੰਗਤਿ ਸੁਭਾਵ ਗਤਿ ਗੁਰਮਤਿ ਦੁਰਮਤਿ ਸੁਖ ਦੁਖ ਪਾਵਈ ।੨੩੮।
taise hee asaadh saadh sangat subhaav gat guramat duramat sukh dukh paavee |238|So would we face distress in the company of se1f-orien! self-willed people while association with Guru-conscious people enlightens the mind with Guru's wisdom which highly comforting. (238)
