ਤੂ ਮੇਰੀ ਗਤਿ ਪਤਿ ਤੂ ਪਰਵਾਨੁ ॥
too mayree gat pat too parvaan.
You are my salvation and honor; You make me acceptable.
ਤੂ ਸਮਰਥੁ ਮੈ ਤੇਰਾ ਤਾਣੁ ॥੩॥
too samrath mai tayraa taan. ||3||
You are All-powerful, You are my strength. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are my freedom and my honor; You make me worthy.
You are all-powerful, You are my strength.
Your freedom, your honor, your strength — all of it is the Beloved's gift.
Everything the soul has is the One's: "my salvation and honor... my strength." Even worth is conferred — "You make me acceptable." The soul claims nothing as its own achievement; freedom, honor, strength are all the Beloved's gifts.
A Question to Sit With
What in you might be better seen as a gift than as your own doing?
