ਮਨ ਕਾ ਝੂਠਾ ਝੂਠੁ ਕਮਾਵੈ ॥

man kaa jhootthaa jhootth kamaavai |

The man of false mind practices falsehood.

ਮਾਇਆ ਨੋ ਫਿਰੈ ਤਪਾ ਸਦਾਵੈ ॥

maaeaa no firai tapaa sadaavai |

He runs after Maya, and yet pretends to be a man of disciplined meditation.

ਭਰਮੇ ਭੂਲਾ ਸਭਿ ਤੀਰਥ ਗਹੈ ॥

bharame bhoolaa sabh teerath gahai |

Deluded by doubt, he visits all the sacred shrines of pilgrimage.

ਓਹੁ ਤਪਾ ਕੈਸੇ ਪਰਮ ਗਤਿ ਲਹੈ ॥

ohu tapaa kaise param gat lahai |

How can such a man of disciplined meditation attain the supreme status?

ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਕੋ ਸਚੁ ਕਮਾਵੈ ॥

gur parasaadee ko sach kamaavai |

By Guru's Grace, one lives the Truth.

ਨਾਨਕ ਸੋ ਤਪਾ ਮੋਖੰਤਰੁ ਪਾਵੈ ॥੧॥

naanak so tapaa mokhantar paavai |1|

O Nanak, such a man of disciplined meditation attains liberation. ||1||
