man mailaa sach nirmalaa ki-o kar mili-aa jaa-ay.
O my friends, the eternal God is always immaculate and human mind is filthy with vices, so how could a human being unite with Him?
Ee marafiki wangu, Mungu wa milele daima ni mtakatifu na akili ya binadamu imechafuliwa na maovu, basi binadamu anawezaje kuungana na Yeye?

ਨਦਰਿ ਕਰੇ ਨਾ ਵੀਸਰੈ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਵੀਚਾਰਿ ॥੧੩॥
nadar karay naa veesrai gurmatee veechaar. ||13||
But if one reflects upon the Guru’s teachings, then God bestows His grace and he does not forget Him. ||13||
Lakini iwapo mtu atafakari kuhusu mafundisho ya Guru, basi Mungu anatawaza neema yake naye hamsahau Mungu.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਮੇਲੇ ਤਾ ਮਿਲਿ ਰਹਾ ਸਾਚੁ ਰਖਾ ਉਰ ਧਾਰਿ ॥

If the true Guru unites me with God, then only I can remain united with Him and keep Him enshrined in my heart.
Iwapo Guru wa kweli aniunganishe na Mungu, wakati huo tu ndio naweza kubaki nimeungana na Yeye na kumthamini Yeye moyoni mwangu.

ਮਨਮੁਖ ਮਨੁ ਨ ਭਿਜਈ ਅਤਿ ਮੈਲੇ ਚਿਤਿ ਕਠੋਰ ॥
manmukh man na bhij-ee at mailay chit kathor.
The mind of the self-willed people does not get imbued with God’s love; their mind is extremely dirty with vices and have no compassion for others.
Akili ya watu wenye hiari binafsi haipenyezwi na upendo wa Mungu; akili yao ni chafu mno kutokana na maovu na hawana ukarimu kwa wengine.
ਸਪੈ ਦੁਧੁ ਪੀਆਈਐ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਵਿਸੁ ਨਿਕੋਰ ॥੧੬॥
sapai duDh pee-aa-ee-ai andar vis nikor. ||16||
They are like snakes who even when fed on milk, still have only poison in them.||16||
Wao ni kama nyoka ambao hata wakilishwa kwa maziwa, bado wana sumu tu ndani yao.
ਆਪਿ ਕਰੇ ਕਿਸੁ ਆਖੀਐ ਆਪੇ ਬਖਸਣਹਾਰੁ ॥
aap karay kis aakhee-ai aapay bakhsanhaar.
O’ my friends, God Himself is doing everything, therefore whom can we say good or bad; He Himself is capable of bestowing mercy on them.
Ee marafiki wangu, Mungu Mwenyewe anafanya kila kitu, hivyo basi tunaweza sema nani ni mzuri au mbaya; Yeye Mwenyewe ana uwezo wa kutawaza huruma kwao.
ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਮੈਲੁ ਉਤਰੈ ਤਾ ਸਚੁ ਬਣਿਆ ਸੀਗਾਰੁ ॥੧੭॥
gur sabdee mail utrai taa sach bani-aa seegaar. ||17||
When one’s dirt of ego is washed off by reflecting on the Guru’s word, then his soul is embellished with everlasting beauty. ||17||
Wakati uchafu wa mtu wa ubinafsi unasafishwa kwa kutafakari kuhusu neno la Guru, basi roho yake inapambwa na urembo unaodumu milele.
