ਮੁਸਲਮਾਣਾ ਸੁਅਰਹੁ ਸਉਗੰਦ ਵਿਆਜੁ।

Musalamaanaan Sooarahu Saugand Viaaju |

the Musalmans pledge against the pork and the interest on money;

ਸਹੁਰਾ ਘਰਿ ਜਾਵਾਈਐ ਪਾਣੀ ਮਦਰਾਜੁ।

Sahuraa Ghari Javaaeeai Paanee Mudaraaju |

for father-in-law, even the water of the house of son-in-law is prohibited like the wine;

ਸਹਾ ਨ ਖਾਈ ਚੂਹੜਾ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੁਹਤਾਜੁ।

Sahaa N Khaaee Chooharhaa Maaiaa Muhataaju |

the scanvenger eats not rabbit, though he be hard of money;

ਜਿਉ ਮਿਠੈ ਮਖੀ ਮਰੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਹੋਇ ਅਕਾਜੁ।

Jiu Mithhai Makhee Marai Tisu Hoi Akaaju |

as the dead fly makes the taste of sweet bad and the sweet getting poisonous becomes useless,

ਤਿਉ ਧਰਮਸਾਲ ਦੀ ਝਾਕ ਹੈ ਵਿਹੁ ਖੰਡੂਪਾਜੁ ॥੧੨॥

Tiu Dharamasaal Dee Jhaak Hai Vihu Khandoo Paaju ||12 ||

similarly to set one's eye upon the earning of the religious place is like eating of sugar coated poison.
