ਜੈਸੇ ਅੰਨਾਦਿ ਆਦਿ ਅੰਤ ਪਰਯੰਤ ਹੰਤ ਸਗਲ ਸੰਸਾਰ ਕੋ ਆਧਾਰ ਭਯੋ ਤਾਂਹੀ ਸੈਂ ।
jaise anaad aad ant parayant hant sagal sansaar ko aadhaar bhayo taanhee sain |

Just as grains are beaten and crushed right from the beginning and having lost their identity they become the support and sustenance of the whole world.

ਜੈਸੇ ਤਉ ਕਪਾਸ ਤ੍ਰਾਸ ਦੇਤ ਨ ਉਦਾਸ ਕਾਢੈ ਜਗਤ ਕੀ ਓਟ ਭਏ ਅੰਬਰ ਦਿਵਾਹੀ ਸੈਂ ।
jaise tau kapaas traas det na udaas kaadtai jagat kee ott bhe anbar divaahee sain |

Just as cotton bears the pain of ginning and spinning and loses its identity to become cloth and cover the bodies of the people of the world.

ਜੈਸੇ ਆਪਾ ਖੋਇ ਜਲ ਮਿਲੈ ਸਭਿ ਬਰਨ ਮੈਂ ਖਗ ਮ੍ਰਿਗ ਮਾਨਸ ਤ੍ਰਿਪਤ ਗਤ ਯਾਹੀ ਸੈਂ ।
jaise aapaa khoe jal milai sabh baran main khag mrig maanas tripat gat yaahee sain |

Just as water loses its identity and becomes one with all colours and bodies and this character of destroying its own identity makes it capable of satiating others need.

ਤੈਸੇ ਮਨ ਸਾਧਿ ਸਾਧਿ ਸਾਧਨਾ ਕੈ ਸਾਧ ਭਏ ਯਾਹੀ ਤੇ ਸਕਲ ਕੌ ਉਧਾਰ ਅਵਗਾਹੀ ਸੈਂ ।੫੮੧।
taise man saadh saadh saadhanaa kai saadh bhe yaahee te sakal kau udhaar avagaahee sain |581|

Similarly, those who took consecration from the True Guru and practiced Naam Simran to discipline their minds become superior persons. They are the emancipator of the whole world by attaching them with Guru. (581)
