The Ignorant Traveler

کندٮؠو مرگن گُرٮؠن کھسَکھ

Kandyaw margan guryen khasakh

O ignorant one! Will you ride a horse through treacherous mountain passes?

کنٛدٮؠو ہم نتہٕ وسَکھ ناوے

Kandyaw ham nate wasakh naaway

O ignorant one! Will you board a boat without a guiding pole?

بالہٕ پان راوٕرَکھ بُجرس ڈسَکھ

Baali paan raawrakh bujras dasakh

You will squander your youth and stumble blindly into frail old age

لورِ روٚس أنِس وَتھ کُس ہاوے

Lori ros anis wath kus haawey

For without a walking cane, who can ever show a blind man the way?

پَوٕ یوٚد پکَکھ تَوٕ ادٕ لسَکھ

Pawe yod pakakh tawe ade lasakh

Only if you walk the well-trodden path of the righteous will you survive

نَتہٕ ہبا کوٚرمُتےٕ راوے

Nate haba kormutuy raaway

Or else, O dear one, even the spiritual wealth you have earned will be lost
