chandan ba-rau in rah ki dui bar-KHezad
chandāñ ba-rau iiñ rah ki duī bar-ḳhezad
gar niist duī za rah-ravī bar-ḳhezad
tū uu na shavī va-lek gar jehd kunī
jaa.e ba-rasī kaz tū tuī bar-ḳhezad
Walk warily on this path for from it arises duality, if no duality arises, from thy treading (this pathway) it will arise thou canst not become That, if thou dost endeavour thou shalt reach a stage, from which the thee from thyself will be gone (no distinct individuality will appear).

jae ba-rasi kaz tu tui bar-KHezad
Walk warily on this path for from it arises duality, if no duality arises, from thy treading (this pathway) it will arise thou canst not become That, if thou dost endeavour thou shalt reach a stage, from which the thee from thyself will be gone (no distinct individuality will appear).
