Kabit Savaiye Bhai Gurdas Ji

ਜੈਸੇ ਤਉ ਕੁਚੀਲ ਪਵਿਤ੍ਰਤਾ ਅਤੀਤ ਮਾਖੀ ਰਾਖੀ ਨ ਰਹਿਤ ਜਾਇ ਬੈਠੇ ਇਛਾਚਾਰੀ ਹੈ ।
jaise tau kucheel pavitrataa ateet maakhee raakhee na rahit jaae baitthe ichhaachaaree hai |

Just as a dirty and defiled fly sits here and there at its will and does not stop even when made to flyaway repeatedly, so do dross-filled and evil-doers come to the holy congregation and impose their will on others;

ਪੁਨਿ ਜਉ ਅਹਾਰ ਸਨਬੰਧ ਪਰਵੇਸੁ ਕਰੈ ਜਰੈ ਨ ਅਜਰ ਉਕਲੇਦੁ ਖੇਦੁ ਭਾਰੀ ਹੈ ।
pun jau ahaar sanabandh paraves karai jarai na ajar ukaled khed bhaaree hai |

And then if the same fly enters our stomach along with food, being indigestible, makes us vomit causing much distress. Like fly, unauthorised persons cause much disturbance in the holy company.

ਬਧਿਕ ਬਿਧਾਨ ਜਿਉ ਉਦਿਆਨ ਮੈ ਟਾਟੀ ਦਿਖਾਇ ਕਰੈ ਜੀਵ ਘਾਤ ਅਪਰਾਧ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀ ਹੈ ।
badhik bidhaan jiau udiaan mai ttaattee dikhaae karai jeev ghaat aparaadh adhikaaree hai |

Just as a hunter uses a mock contraption to hunt wild animals, he becomes eligible for punishment of his sins. So would a deceitful person be punished who keep deceiving gullible people in his garb of a saint or a loving devotee.

ਹਿਰਦੈ ਬਿਲਾਉ ਅਰੁ ਨੈਨ ਬਗ ਧਿਆਨੀ ਪ੍ਰਾਨੀ ਕਪਟ ਸਨੇਹੀ ਦੇਹੀ ਅੰਤ ਹੁਇ ਦੁਖਾਰੀ ਹੈ ।੨੩੯।
hiradai bilaau ar nain bag dhiaanee praanee kapatt sanehee dehee ant hue dukhaaree hai |239|

Similarly one whose heart (like a he-cat) is ever engrossed in avarice, who harbours ill intentions and fake love in his eyes like a heron, falls a prey to the angels of death and is put through untold sufferings. (239)
