Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I live by beholding Your sight.
Listening to Your Words, true Guru, my mind and body are cooled and soothed.
Seeing what you love is life itself — and hearing true words cools the fever inside.
The Pause: "I live by beholding the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan." Seeing the Beloved is life itself; and listening to the Guru's Words "cools and soothes" mind and body — the fever of restlessness eased again (cf. Shabad 100).
A Question to Sit With
What sight or sound cools and soothes you all the way through?
