ਫਰੀਦਾ ਜਾਂ ਤਉ ਖਟਣ ਵੇਲ ਤਾਂ ਤੂ ਰਤਾ ਦੁਨੀ ਸਿਉ ॥

fareedaa jaan tau khattan vel taan too rataa dunee siau |

Fareed, when there was time for you to earn good karma, you were in love with the world instead.

ਮਰਗ ਸਵਾਈ ਨੀਹਿ ਜਾਂ ਭਰਿਆ ਤਾਂ ਲਦਿਆ ॥੮॥

marag savaaee neehi jaan bhariaa taan ladiaa |8|

Now, death has a strong foothold; when the load is full, it is taken away. ||8||
