ਤਾਪੁ ਗਇਆ ਬਚਨਿ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੇ ॥
taap ga-i-aa bachan gur pooray.
The fever has been broken, by the Teachings of the Perfect Guru.
ਅਨਦੁ ਭਇਆ ਸਭਿ ਮਿਟੇ ਵਿਸੂਰੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
anad bha-i-aa sabh mitay visooray. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I am in ecstasy, and all of my sorrows have been dispelled. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The fever has broken through the teaching of the perfect Guru.
I am in joy, and all my sorrows have lifted.
The right teaching breaks the fever of suffering the way rest breaks a real one.
The Pause names the cure's agent — "the Teachings of the Perfect Guru" — and its effect: "the fever has been broken." The fever of suffering breaks the way a real fever breaks, into relief and "ecstasy." The Guru's teaching is the medicine delivered.
