ਤੁਮ ਹੀ ਸੁੰਦਰਿ ਤੁਮਹਿ ਸੁਹਾਗੁ ॥
tum hee sundar tumeh suhaag.
You are so beautiful; you are the happy soul-bride.
ਤੁਮ ਘਰਿ ਲਾਲਨੁ ਤੁਮ ਘਰਿ ਭਾਗੁ ॥੨॥
tum ghar laalan tum ghar bhaag. ||2||
Your Beloved is in your home; good fortune is in your home. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are so beautiful — you are the happy bride.
Your Beloved is in your home; good fortune fills your house.
The soul's good fortune isn't its ornaments — it's the Beloved living within.
The bride is named suhaagan, the happy bride, and the reason for her beauty is named: "your Beloved is in your home." Her good fortune is not in her ornaments but in the presence — the Beloved dwelling within. Beauty follows presence (cf. Shabad 71).
