Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I keep my eyes lowered and hold my Friend inside my heart.
I enjoy every delight with my Beloved, and I let no one else know.
Keep your love for the One close and quiet.
Love for the One can be held quietly inside, without any show.
Neechay lo-in kar raha-o: I keep my eyes cast down, the way a shy bride does. Lay saajan ghat maahi: I keep the Friend within. Kisee lakhaava-o naahi: I show it to no one.
