Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When the sun rises inside you, the dark things scatter.
You lift your eyes and turn toward the true Word.
The One is there before every beginning and after every ending, past all the worlds — acting, speaking, listening, all at once.
It shapes what comes to be, and gives you your very mind and body.
That Maker of all lives in my thoughts and on my lips.
It is the Life of the whole world — there is no other. Nanak says: colored by the Naam, a person walks in honor.
Ugvai soor asur sanghaarai — when the inner sun rises, the asuras, the dark forces, scatter; this is kept inward, the shadows of the mind losing their grip. Bidhaataa — the architect who gives us mind and body. Naam ratay — dyed in the Name — walks in honor.
What helps the light rise in you on a hard morning?
