રાખીશ મા દરકાર, સાર સમજી ઉર ધરજે.

નહિ ભોગ પર ભાવ, નાવમાં નીર ભરાયાં.
સરખે સરખી જોડ, કોડના બંને માર્યાં;
No longing for worldly pleasures, when the boat is filled with water.A perfectly matched pair, both their cherished hopes undone.

છૂટી પડી ગઈ સોડ, હોડમાં બંને હાર્યાં.

ગયો ખાલી થઈ હોજ, મોજ શી શીરે જમતા!

(રે) હજીયે બાળે કામ, જામ આઠે શિર ફરતું.

આપણને તે યાદ, નાદથી ઝાઝો માગ્યો.
