ਸਰਵਣ ਬਾਚਿ ॥

saravan baach |

Speech of Shravan :

ਕਛੁ ਪ੍ਰਾਨ ਰਹੇ ਤਿਹ ਮਧ ਤਨੰ ॥

kachh praan rahe tih madh tanan |

ਨਿਕਰੰਤ ਕਹਾ ਜੀਅ ਬਿਪ੍ਰ ਨ੍ਰਿਪੰ ॥

nikarant kahaa jeea bipr nripan |

There were still some life-breath in the body of Shravan. In his final life-breaths, the Brahmin said to the kind:

ਮੁਰ ਤਾਤ ਰੁ ਮਾਤ ਨ੍ਰਿਚਛ ਪਰੇ ॥

mur taat ru maat nrichachh pare |

ਤਿਹ ਪਾਨ ਪਿਆਇ ਨ੍ਰਿਪਾਧ ਮਰੇ ॥੨੨॥

tih paan piaae nripaadh mare |22|

“My mother and father are blind and are lying on that side. You go there and make them drink water, so that I may die peacefully.”22.
