Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
He alone is the One and only; from that One came the whole spread of creation.
Singing and meditating, countless humble souls have grown holy; remembering the Name, so many have been saved.
Everything came from the One, and the Name has already carried countless people home.
This is Ik Onkar: there is only One. From that One came the whole spread of creation, like every branch growing from one seed.
Ayk naam dhi-aa-ay bahut udhaaray — by keeping the one Name in mind, so many have been saved. This path is not only for a few special people. It is a road huge numbers of ordinary people have already walked. The One is the source of all. The Name is the way home for all who turn toward it.
Does it encourage you to know that many ordinary people have walked the path before you?
