ਪਾਤਰ ਮੈ ਜੈਸੇ ਬਹੁ ਬਿੰਜਨ ਪਰੋਸੀਅਤ ਭੋਜਨ ਕੈ ਡਾਰੀਅਤ ਪਾਵੈ ਨਾਹਿ ਠਾਮ ਕੋ ।
paatar mai jaise bahu binjan paroseeat bhojan kai ddaareeat paavai naeh tthaam ko |

Just as several eatables are served in a big leaf but after eating these dishes, the leaf is thrown away. Then it has no place in one's scheme of things.

ਜੈਸੇ ਹੀ ਤਮੋਲ ਰਸ ਰਸਨਾ ਰਸਾਇ ਖਾਇ ਡਾਰੀਐ ਉਗਾਰ ਨਾਹਿ ਰਹੈ ਆਢ ਦਾਮ ਕੋ ।
jaise hee tamol ras rasanaa rasaae khaae ddaareeai ugaar naeh rahai aadt daam ko |

Just as betel leaf extract is obtained by masticating the leaf and after enjoying the extract, the residue is thrown away. It is not worth even half a shell.

ਫੂਲਨ ਕੋ ਹਾਰ ਉਰ ਧਾਰ ਬਾਸ ਲੀਜੈ ਜੈਸੇ ਪਾਛੈ ਡਾਰ ਦੀਜੈ ਕਹੈ ਹੈ ਨ ਕਾਹੂ ਕਾਮ ਕੋ ।
foolan ko haar ur dhaar baas leejai jaise paachhai ddaar deejai kahai hai na kaahoo kaam ko |

Just as a garland of flowers is worn around the neck and sweet smell of the flowers is enjoyed, but once these flowers wither away, these are thrown away saying that they are no good now.

ਜੈਸੇ ਕੇਸ ਨਖ ਥਾਨ ਭ੍ਰਿਸਟ ਨ ਸੁਹਾਤ ਕਾਹੂ ਪ੍ਰਿਯ ਬਿਛੁਰਤ ਸੋਈ ਸੂਤ ਭਯੋ ਬਾਮ ਕੋ ।੬੧੫।
jaise kes nakh thaan bhrisatt na suhaat kaahoo priy bichhurat soee soot bhayo baam ko |615|

Just as hair and nails if plucked from their actual place are very uncomfortable and painful, such is the state of a woman separated from love of her husband. (615)
