यत्रा सुहार्दः सुकृतो मदन्ति विहाय रोगं तन्वः१ स्वायाः । अश्लोणा अङ्गैरह्रुताः स्वर्गे तत्र पश्येम पितरौ च पुत्रान्
yátrā suhã́rdaḥ sukṛ́to mádanti vihā́ya rógaṃ tanvàḥ svā́yāḥ | aślóṇā áṅgair áhrutāḥ svargé tátra paśyema pitaráu ca putrā́n
Where the kindly-hearted, the merit-winners, rejoice—having left behind the sickness of their own body—unlame in their limbs, uninjured in heaven: there may we behold our parents and our sons.
ਜਿੱਥੇ ਸੁਹਿਰਦੇ, ਸੁਕ੍ਰਿਤ ਦੇ ਜੇਤੂ ਖੁਸ਼ੀ ਮਨਾਉਂਦੇ ਹਨ—ਆਪਣੇ ਹੀ ਸਰੀਰ ਦੀ ਬਿਮਾਰੀ ਪਿੱਛੇ ਛੱਡ ਕੇ—ਅੰਗਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੰਗੜਾਪਣ ਤੋਂ ਰਹਿਤ, ਅਖੰਡ, ਸਵਰਗ ਵਿੱਚ; ਉੱਥੇ ਅਸੀਂ ਆਪਣੇ ਮਾਤਾ-ਪਿਤਾ ਅਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਪੁੱਤਰਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖੀਏ।
