And the Guru said
bhandi jammiai, bhandi nimmiai, bhandi manganu wiahu /
bhandahu howai dosati, bandahu calai rahu //
bhandu mua bhandu bhaliai, bhandi howai bandhanu //
so kiu manda akhiai, jitu janmahi rajana //
bhandahu hi bhandu upajai, bhandai bajhu ha koi //
Nanaka bhandai bahura, eko saca soi //
translated in English it means
From the woman is our birth,
in the woman’s womb are we conceived.
To the woman we are engaged,
to the woman we are wedded.
The woman is our friend,
from the woman is the family,
through the woman are our bonds of the world.
Why call woman evil,
Who gives birth to kings and all?
From the woman is born the woman,
without the woman there is non.
O Nanak, save the One True God alone.
