Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
A deep, natural peace does not come from grabbing more, it grows from the teaching, and a cleared heart settles right into what is real.
Follow the guide and you begin to understand; without one, it is easy to keep missing the path.
And if greed is quietly running the show inside, no clever lie can cover it; untrue living only sours your own days.
saach sahj gur tay oopjai — true sahaj arises from the Guru; man nirmal saach samaa-ee — the cleared mind merges in truth. jis antar lobh... koorh bol bikh khaa-ee — with greed inside, lying is like eating poison, softened to 'sours your own days,' self-harm imagery bent to natural consequence.
When has doing the honest thing left you feeling lighter than a shortcut would have?
