Translation
O my heart, you are very suspicious. You came to this world of birth and death. You were imprisoned in this world of matter. Now you are attached to dull material things.
Forgetting your true home, you serve material desires. You see nothing but matter. Your true identity is covered, almost lost, hidden inside your body.

Translation
You always think of material things. Your actions are all material. To whom will I tell my sufferings? Turning away from your eternal master, you take shelter of something worthless and pathetic.
You don't see the truth of the soul. You have turned from the pure truth. You are not interested in the soul. More and more you like to doubt, "Does the soul exist, or not?"
