ਜੈਸੇ ਮਾਲਾ ਮੇਰ ਪੋਈਅਤ ਸਭ ਊਪਰ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨ ਸੰਖ੍ਯਾ ਮੈ ਨ ਆਵਤ ਬਡਾਈ ਕੈ ।
jaise maalaa mer poeeat sabh aoopar kai simaran sankhayaa mai na aavat baddaaee kai |

Just as main bead in a rosary is always put in the string first but being at higher place is not considered along with the other beads when the rosary is turned.

ਜੈਸੇ ਬਿਰਖਨ ਬਿਖੈ ਪੇਖੀਐ ਸੇਬਲ ਊਚੋ ਨਿਹਫਲ ਭਇਓ ਸੋਊ ਅਤਿ ਅਧਿਕਾਰੀ ਕੈ ।
jaise birakhan bikhai pekheeai sebal aoocho nihafal bheio soaoo at adhikaaree kai |

The silk cotton tree is the tallest and mighty among the trees yet it bears useless fruits.

ਜੈਸੇ ਚੀਲ ਪੰਛੀਨ ਮੈ ਉਡਤ ਅਕਾਸਚਾਰੀ ਹੇਰੇ ਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਪਿੰਜਰਨ ਊਚੈ ਮਤੁ ਪਾਈ ਕੈ ।
jaise cheel panchheen mai uddat akaasachaaree here mrit pinjaran aoochai mat paaee kai |

Just as of all the birds that fly high, an eagle is supreme but when flying high, it only looks for dead bodies. What use is its ability to fly high?

ਗਾਇਬੋ ਬਜਾਇਬੋ ਸੁਨਾਇਬੋ ਨ ਕਛੂ ਤੈਸੇ ਗੁਰ ਉਪਦੇਸ ਬਿਨਾ ਧ੍ਰਿਗ ਚਤੁਰਾਈ ਕੈ ।੬੩੧।
gaaeibo bajaaeibo sunaaeibo na kachhoo taise gur upades binaa dhrig chaturaaee kai |631|

Similarly, without the teachings of True Guru, arrogant, cleverness is condemnable. Loud singing, playing or recitation of such a person is meaningless. (631)
