Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Your Name, God, is the treasure of peace; I have received this everlasting Mantra.
In mercy the true Guru gave it to me, and my fever, pain, and hatred are dissolved.
The Name dissolves not just pain but hatred — it melts the hardness in the heart.
The Name is "the treasure of peace" and "this everlasting Mantra," given by the Guru's mercy. And notice what dissolves: not only fever and pain but hatred. The Name does not just soothe suffering; it melts the hardness of the heart.
