ਬਾਂਝ ਬਧੂ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨਿਪੁੰਸਕ ਨ ਸੰਤਤ ਹੁਇ ਸਲਲ ਬਿਲੋਇ ਕਤ ਮਾਖਨ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸ ਹੈ ।
baanjh badhoo purakh nipunsak na santat hue salal biloe kat maakhan pragaas hai |Just as a barren woman and an impotent man cannot produce children, and churning of water cannot yield butter.
ਫਨ ਗਹਿ ਦੁਗਧ ਪੀਆਏ ਨ ਮਿਟਤ ਬਿਖੁ ਮੂਰੀ ਖਾਏ ਮੁਖ ਸੈ ਨ ਪ੍ਰਗਟੇ ਸੁਬਾਸ ਹੈ ।
fan geh dugadh peeae na mittat bikh mooree khaae mukh sai na pragatte subaas hai |Just as a poison of a cobra cannot be destroyed by feeding him milk and one cannot get good smell from mouth after eating radish.
ਮਾਨਸਰ ਪਰ ਬੈਠੇ ਬਾਇਸੁ ਉਦਾਸ ਬਾਸ ਅਰਗਜਾ ਲੇਪੁ ਖਰ ਭਸਮ ਨਿਵਾਸ ਹੈ ।
maanasar par baitthe baaeis udaas baas aragajaa lep khar bhasam nivaas hai |Just as a filth-eating crow on reaching lake Mansarover, becomes sad since he cannot get filth which he is so used to eating; and a donkey will roll in dust even if it is given a bath with sweet smelling scents.
ਆਂਨ ਦੇਵ ਸੇਵਕ ਨ ਜਾਨੈ ਗੁਰਦੇਵ ਸੇਵ ਕਠਨ ਕੁਟੇਵ ਨ ਮਿਟਤ ਦੇਵ ਦਾਸ ਹੈ ।੪੪੫।
aan dev sevak na jaanai guradev sev katthan kuttev na mittat dev daas hai |445|Similarly, the servant of other gods cannot realise the ecstasy of serving the True Guru, because the chronic and bad habits of the followers of god cannot perish. (445)
