ਤੀਰਥ ਮਜਨ ਕਰਬੈ ਕੋ ਹੈ ਇਹੈ ਗੁਨਾਉ ਨਿਰਮਲ ਤਨ ਤ੍ਰਿਖਾ ਤਪਤਿ ਨਿਵਾਰੀਐ ।
teerath majan karabai ko hai ihai gunaau niramal tan trikhaa tapat nivaareeai |The significance of bathing at places of pilgrimage is that body becomes clean and free of all desires and attractions.
ਦਰਪਨ ਦੀਪ ਕਰ ਗਹੇ ਕੋ ਇਹੈ ਗੁਨਾਉ ਪੇਖਤ ਚਿਹਨ ਮਗ ਸੁਰਤਿ ਸੰਮਾਰੀਐ ।
darapan deep kar gahe ko ihai gunaau pekhat chihan mag surat samaareeai |Holding of mirror in the hand shows one the shape of features and body structure. Carrying a lamp in hand makes one aware of the path one walks on.
ਭੇਟਤ ਭਤਾਰ ਨਾਰਿ ਕੋ ਇਹੈ ਗੁਨਾਉ ਸ੍ਵਾਂਤਬੂੰਦ ਸੀਪ ਗਤਿ ਲੈ ਗਰਬ ਪ੍ਰਤਿਪਾਰੀਐ ।
bhettat bhataar naar ko ihai gunaau svaantaboond seep gat lai garab pratipaareeai |The union of husband and wife is like swati drop falling in an oyster that develops into a pearl. The wife becomes pregnant and she takes care of her pearl-like child in her womb.
ਤੈਸੇ ਗੁਰ ਚਰਨਿ ਸਰਨਿ ਕੋ ਇਹੈ ਗੁਨਾਉ ਗੁਰ ਉਪਦੇਸ ਕਰਿ ਹਾਰੁ ਉਰਿ ਧਾਰੀਐ ।੩੭੭।
taise gur charan saran ko ihai gunaau gur upades kar haar ur dhaareeai |377|Similarly, a disciple taking refuge of the True Guru and getting initiation from him is that the Sikh of the Guru adopts the teachings of the True Guru in his heart and lives his life accordingly. (377)
