Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One says: if you set yourself right, you will meet Me, and meeting Me, you will be at peace.
Farid, if you become Mine, the whole world will be yours.
Become the One's, and the whole world becomes yours.
Set yourself right and belong to the One, and the whole world becomes yours.
Here the One speaks. Aap savaareh: shape yourself well, clean up your own heart. Mai mili-aa sukh ho-ay: meeting Me brings peace.
Jay too mayraa ho-ay raheh: if you stay Mine, sabh jag tayraa, all the world is yours. A heart that belongs to the One stops grabbing at the world, and finds it already at home everywhere.
