બેઠક Bethak

પરનિંદા પરનારી અરૂ, પરદ્રવ્યનકી આશ; છોડી તીનું ખાતકું, ભજે એક અવિનાશ.

paraniṁdā paranārī arū, paradravyanakī āśa; chōḍī tīnuṁ khātakuṁ, bhajē ēka avināśa.

Literally
Slandering others, another's woman, and desire for another's wealth; abandoning these three evils, worship the one indestructible God.
What it means
Advises renouncing gossip, lust, and greed to focus solely on devotion to God.
