Chaupai Text
सो सुधारि हरिजन जिमि लेहीं। दलि दुख दोष बिमल जसु देहीं॥ खलउ करहिं भल पाइ सुसंगू। मिटइ न मलिन सुभाउ अभंगू॥ २ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
so sudhāri harijana jimi lehīṃ। dali dukha doṣa bimala jasu dehīṃ॥ khalau karahiṃ bhala pāi susaṃgū। miṭai na malina subhāu abhaṃgū॥ 2 ॥
Meaning
Just as the Lord’s devotees correct such faults and, by destroying sorrow and defects, bring forth spotless fame, so even the wicked may sometimes do good when they get noble company; but their evil nature, though never broken, does not disappear.
