Neither enmity nor friendship ... Vair Bhalaa na Preet

        Rahiman Ochhay Naran syon Vair Bhalaa na Preeet

        Kaatay Chaatay Swaan kay, Dou Bhaanti Vipreet 

Neither enmity nor friendship is wise with mean-spirited people.

A dog may bite you in anger or lick your face in affection—

Both scenarios are undesirable and harmful. 

                      ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Rahim says it is neither wise to be enemies with mean-spirited people nor to befriend them.

He gives an example of a dog—

If the dog gets angry, it will bite your leg 

And if it shows affection, it will lick your face.

Neither action is good for you.

In other words, both situations ultimately cause you harm. 

Therefore, it is better to stay away from those with bad intentions.
