ਜੈਸੇ ਖਾਂਡ ਚੂਨ ਘ੍ਰਿਤ ਹੋਤ ਘਰ ਬਿਖੈ ਪੈ ਪਾਹੁਨਾ ਕੈ ਆਏ ਪੂਰੀ ਕੈ ਖੁਵਾਇ ਖਾਈਐ ।
jaise khaandd choon ghrit hot ghar bikhai pai paahunaa kai aae pooree kai khuvaae khaaeeai |Just as flour, sugar and oil are kept at home, and on arrival of some guests, sweet dishes are prepared, served and eaten.
ਜੈਸੇ ਚੀਰ ਹਾਰ ਮੁਕਤਾ ਕਨਕ ਆਭਰਨ ਪੈ ਬ੍ਯਾਹੁ ਕਾਜ ਸਾਜਿ ਤਨ ਸੁਜਨ ਦਿਖਾਈਐ ।
jaise cheer haar mukataa kanak aabharan pai bayaahu kaaj saaj tan sujan dikhaaeeai |Just as beautiful dresses, pearl necklace and gold jewellery are in possession but are worn on special occasions like marriage and are shown to others.
ਜੈਸੇ ਹੀਰਾ ਮਾਨਿਕ ਅਮੋਲ ਹੋਤ ਹਾਟ ਹੀ ਮੈਂ ਗਾਹ ਕੈ ਦਿਖਾਇ ਬਿੜਤਾ ਬਿਸੇਖ ਪਾਈਐ ।
jaise heeraa maanik amol hot haatt hee main gaah kai dikhaae birrataa bisekh paaeeai |Just as valuable pearls and jewels are kept in the shop, but shopkeeper shows them to the customer to sell and earn profit.
ਤੈਸੇ ਗੁਰਬਾਨੀ ਲਿਖ ਪੋਥੀ ਬਾਂਧਿ ਰਾਖੀਅਤ ਮਿਲ ਗੁਰਸਿਖ ਪੜਿ ਸੁਨਿ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਈਐ ।੫੬੨।
taise gurabaanee likh pothee baandh raakheeat mil gurasikh parr sun liv laaeeai |562|Similarly Gurbani is written in a book form, it is bound and preserved. But when the Sikhs of Guru assemble in a congregation, that book is read and heard and it helps one attach the mind in the holy feet of the Lord.
