Eji Duniyaa prit na kijie,
ane raakho dinsun neh;
duniyaa din chaar chhe,
dinsun na daiye chheh 1

Eji Sansaarmaa ek man kijie,
temaa na kijie bharaant;
jap tap satnu kijie,
to saahebsun hove ekaant 2

Eji Manmaa deval jaanniye,
ane manmaa dev parmaann;
manmaa kunbhni pujaa kijie,
to Satgur bhettiyaa jaann 3

Eji Jaaher manddhi baandhiye,
ane maanhe vasaaiye vaas;
sati silvantaa aavi male,
pure man ni aas 4

Eji Sati silvantaa te kahiye,
jenu saahebjisun dhiyaan,
te sati saachaa kahiye,
jene haiye harkh ne maan 5

Eji Aashaa teni puri padde,
ane puri Gurni vaach;
man ichhaa teni thai,
jugmaa chaali saankh 6

Eji Nar naari ek chhe,
ane vali jujvaa chhe ghatt;
haalo chaalo ek chhe,
sahu dharamni vaatt 7

Eji Avichal raaj paamiye,
vali ek mane karie jaanp;
to aagal paadshaahi bhogave,
Gur Shams kahe aapohi aap 8

O momins! Do not love the world and have love for religion. The world is there for four days (is fleeting), and religion does not deceive or there is no limit to religion.

Eji Sansaarmaa ek man kijie,
temaa na kijie bharaant;
jap tap satnu kijie,
to saahebsun hove ekaant 2

O momins! In this world be firm and single minded and have no doubts about it. Perform prayers and supplications of truth, then you will be one with the Imam.
