Savaiye in Praise of Guru Amar Das, Verse 7 — patience is his white flag
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
He is a hero of Truth, and humility is his strength. His loving nature fills the Sangat with deep understanding. He is absorbed in the One, free of hate.
Patience has been his white flag from the very beginning, planted on the bridge to heaven.
The saints meet their beloved Guru, who is joined with the Creator.
Serving the True Guru, they find peace. Guru Amar Das has made them able to do it.
Guru Amar Das is a hero of Truth, sat soora-o, and his strength is humility, seel.
He is free of hate, nirvair, and his loving nature draws the Sangat into deep understanding. Patience, Dheeraj, is his white flag, flown from the very beginning: a flag that stays planted and steady.
Those who serve the True Guru find peace, and the Guru makes them able to serve.
When has being patient turned out to be stronger than being forceful?
