Need help understanding this pangti from Rag Sorath

I came across this pangti when I was at the gurdwara listening to kirtan:

ਜੋ ਸਿਰੁ ਸਾਂਈ ਨਾ ਨਿਵੈ ਸੋ ਸਿਰ ਦੀਜੈ ਡਾਰਿ॥

ਨਾਨਕ ਜਿਸੁ ਪਿੰਜਰ ਮਹਿ ਬਿਰਹਾ ਨਹੀ ਸੋ ਪਿੰਜਰੁ ਲੈ ਜਾਰਿ॥
 

chop off that head which does not bow to the Lord

O Nanak, take that body, in which there is no pain of separation from the Lord-take that body and burn it

My Punjabi is very limited and I don’t know what the proper meaning of the pangti is, as I’m sure there is a deeper meaning behind the vague translation. 

thanks
