Ih tan mera khak di dheri, jandi ey tan jave payee. Kul maya te daulat meri, jandi ey tan jave paye. Sach di vairi dunia bhaven, lakh lakh gal banandi rahe. Sach di vairi dunia bhaven, lakh lakh tohmat landi rahe. Sach di vairi dunia bhaven, sach akhan ton dardi rahe. Sach di vairi dunia bhaven, raj raj nindia kardi rahe. Gut bandi te firkadari, jee bhar raula pave payee. Khasmon ghuthhi anhi dunia, rove te kurlave payee. Lagoo ho jaye bhaven dunia, rah ton sakda hat nahin. Kahe Avtar guru di gal noon, koi vi sakda kat nahin. |

This body of mine is a heap of dust, let it go if it be so; All my wealth and belongings may go if it be so, Let the world inimical to Truth fabricate all kinds of rumours; Let the world inimical to Truth level all kinds of accusations. Let the world inimical to Truth be afraid to speak the truth; Let the world inimical to Truth criticize me as vociferously as they can. Let factionalism and sectarianism clamour against me to their heart’s content; Let the blind world oblivious of the Almighty bewail and cry. Even if the whole world turns hostile to me, I cannot deviate from the path of Truth; Avtar says, none can refute the word of the True Master. |
Meaning
This body of mine is just a mass of dust, let it perish if it be so. All my material belongings may be lost, if it be so. Let the world opposed to Truth spread all kind of rumors. Let the world opposed to Truth, level all kinds of accusations. Let the world opposed to Truth be scared of proclaiming the Truth. Let the world opposed to Truth insult as much as it can. Let factionalism and sectarianism make as much cry as they can. Let the blind world ignorant of the Lord Master regret and cry. Even if the whole world turns unfriendly, I can’t deviate from this path of Truth. Avtar says, no one can disprove the word of the True Master.
