27 kal bare shekhiya na maar

kyoki tu nahi jaanda ki kal kee hovega.*+

 2 koi hor* teri tareef kare, na ki tera apna muh;

ha, doosre* karan, na ki tere apne bull.+

 3 pathar bhaara atey ret vazandar hundi hai,

par moorkh vallo khijhaya jana doha nalo bhaara hai.+

 4 gussa berehem hai te krodh harh vang hai,

par irkha samne kaun kharh sakda hai?+

 6 dost de ditte zakham vafadari de hunde han,+

par dushman de chumman dher sare* hunde han.

 7 rajjya hoya insaan chhatte da shehed khaan to vi manha kar dinda hai,*

par bhukhe nu kaurri cheez vi mithi laggdi hai.

 8 jehrra aadmi apna ghar chhadd ke bhatakda firda hai,

oh os panchhi varga hai jehrra apne aalne nu chhadd ke bhatakda firda hai.*

 9 tel atey dhoop dil nu khush karde han;

ose tarha oh nighi dosti hai jo dilo salah den naal paindi hai.+

10 apne dost ja apne pita de dost nu na tyaag

atey apni bipta de din apne bhra de ghar na jaah;

door rehnde bhra nalo nerre da guandi changa hai.+

11 he mere puttar, budhiman hovi atey mere jee nu khush kari+

taaki mai os nu uttar de saka jehrra mainu mehne maarda hai.+

12 samajhdar khatre nu dekh ke luk janda hai,+

par natajarbekar agge vadhda janda hai te anjaam* bhugtda hai.

13 os aadmi da kapda lai la jis ne kise ajnabi da zimma apne sir lya hai;

je os ne kise pardesi aurat* karke kujh gehne rakhya hai, taa oh morri na.+

14 jehrra tarrke-tarrke uchi avaaz vich apne guandi nu asees dinda hai,

os de layi eh saraap hi gini javegi.

16 jehrra os nu rok sakda hai, oh hava nu rok sakda hai

atey apni sajji muthi vich tel nu ghutt ke farr sakda hai.

17 jive loha lohe nu tikha karda hai,

ose tarha ik aadmi apne dost* nu tikha karda hai.+

18 anjeer de drakht di dekh-bhaal karan vala is da fal khavega+

atey apne malak di dekh-bhaal karan vale da aadar keeta javega.+

19 jive paani chehre da aks dikhaunda hai,

ose tarha ik insaan da dil doosre de dil da aks dikhaunda hai.

20 kabar atey vinash di tha* kade nahi rajjdiya,+

na hi insaan diya akkha kade santusht hundiya han.

21 chandi layi kuthali* atey sone layi bhathi hai,+

ose tarha insaan di parakh tareef naal hundi hai.

22 bhave tu moorkh nu ghotne naal kutte,

jive koonde vich anaaj kuttya janda hai,

fir vi os di moorkhta os to door nahi hovegi.

apnia bheda di changi tarha dekh-bhaal kar*+

24 kyoki dhan-daulat hamesha layi nahi rehndi+

atey na hi taaj peerriyo-peerri rehnda hai.

25 hara ghaah khatam ho janda hai te nava ghaah ugg aaunda hai

atey paharra di banaspati ikatthi kar layi jandi hai.

26 bheduaa to tainu kappde milde han

atey bakkre tere khet di keemat chukaunde han.

27 bakkri da dudh tere te tere gharane joga,

nale teriya daasiya de guzare layi kaafi hovega.
