ਜੈਸੇ ਬਿਨੁ ਪਵਨੁ ਕਵਨ ਗੁਨ ਚੰਦਨ ਸੈ ਬਿਨੁ ਮਲਿਆਗਰ ਪਵਨ ਕਤ ਬਾਸਿ ਹੈ ।
jaise bin pavan kavan gun chandan sai bin maliaagar pavan kat baas hai |Just as a sandalwood tree cannot impart its fragrance to others without breeze and without the air of malay mountain, how can the atmosphere become fragranced,
ਜੈਸੇ ਬਿਨੁ ਬੈਦ ਅਵਖਦ ਗੁਨ ਗੋਪਿ ਹੋਤ ਅਵਖਦ ਬਿਨੁ ਬੈਦ ਰੋਗਹਿ ਨ ਗ੍ਰਾਸ ਹੈ ।
jaise bin baid avakhad gun gop hot avakhad bin baid rogeh na graas hai |Just as a physician know the merit of every herb or medicine and without medicine, no physician can cure an ailing person,
ਜੈਸੇ ਬਿਨੁ ਬੋਹਿਥਨ ਪਾਰਿ ਪਰੈ ਖੇਵਟ ਸੈ ਖੇਵਟ ਬਿਹੂੰਨ ਕਤ ਬੋਹਿਥ ਬਿਸ੍ਵਾਸੁ ਹੈ ।
jaise bin bohithan paar parai khevatt sai khevatt bihoon kat bohith bisvaas hai |Just as no one can cross the ocean without sailor nor can it be crossed without a ship,
ਤੈਸੇ ਗੁਰ ਨਾਮੁ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੰਮ ਨ ਪਰਮਪਦੁ ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਨਾਮ ਨਿਹਕਾਮ ਨ ਪ੍ਰਗਾਸ ਹੈ ।੫੧੬।
taise gur naam bin gam na paramapad bin gur naam nihakaam na pragaas hai |516|Similarly without the boon of Lord's name given by the True Guru, God cannot be realised. And without Naam the liberator from the worldly desires and blessed by the True Guru, no one can acquire spiritual effulgence. (516)
