Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Built on falseness, fraud, and deceit, a person collapses in an instant, with no foundation under him.
Truly, truly, truly Nanak speaks: look inside your own heart, and see this for yourself.
This one says a life built on lies has nothing underneath it.
Falsehood, fraud, and tricks are like a house with no foundation. It can fall down in a moment. Think of a tower of blocks built on a wobbly cushion. One bump, and it is gone.
Then Guru Arjan, signing as Nanak, says it three times: sat sat sat — true, true, true. And he gives one instruction: look inside your own heart, and see it there. You do not have to take this on Nanak's word alone. You can check it inside yourself.
What is something you'd only really believe once you saw it for yourself, inside?
