Rehnda kachhi kulli andar rukkhi missi khanda ey; Sara din majoori karda paate kaprhe paanda ey. Koi nahi usda aadar karda jitthe vi oh janda ey; Dhan roop ton heena ey te nahin kise nun bhanda ey. Koi na sangi sathi usda koi na ristedaar bane; Kahe avtar duniya da raja je rab naal pyar bane. |

No matter if one lives in a thatched hut and has frugal meals. No matter if one does manual labor the whole day long and wears torn clothes; No matter if one is not cared for wherever he goes; No matter if one is bankrupt, is not handsome and is not liked by anyone. No matter if none is his friend, companion or relative; Avtar says, even such a person is king of the world, if he is able to love God. |
Meaning
A person who lives in an unstable hut and eats stale food; labors all day and wears torn clothes. A person who is not respected wherever he goes; does not possess the wealth of beauty, is unattractive and does not have any friends or relatives. Avtar says, he is the king of the world if he has love for the Almighty.
