ਹੇ ਜਨਮ ਮਰਣ ਮੂਲੰ ਅਹੰਕਾਰੰ ਪਾਪਾਤਮਾ ॥
he janam maran moolan ahankaaran paapaatamaa |
O egotism, you are the root of birth and death and the cycle of reincarnation; you are the very soul of sin.
ਮਿਤ੍ਰੰ ਤਜੰਤਿ ਸਤ੍ਰੰ ਦ੍ਰਿੜੰਤਿ ਅਨਿਕ ਮਾਯਾ ਬਿਸ੍ਤੀਰਨਹ ॥

You forsake friends, and hold tight to enemies. You spread out countless illusions of Maya.
ਆਵੰਤ ਜਾਵੰਤ ਥਕੰਤ ਜੀਆ ਦੁਖ ਸੁਖ ਬਹੁ ਭੋਗਣਹ ॥
aavant jaavant thakant jeea dukh sukh bahu bhoganah |
You cause the living beings to come and go until they are exhausted. You lead them to experience pain and pleasure.
ਭ੍ਰਮ ਭਯਾਨ ਉਦਿਆਨ ਰਮਣੰ ਮਹਾ ਬਿਕਟ ਅਸਾਧ ਰੋਗਣਹ ॥
bhram bhayaan udiaan ramanan mahaa bikatt asaadh roganah |
You lead them to wander lost in the terrible wilderness of doubt; you lead them to contract the most horrible, incurable diseases.
