ਅਗਮ ਅਗਮ ਆਗਾਧਿ ਬੋਧ ਕੀਮਤਿ ਪਰੈ ਨ ਪਾਵਉ ॥
agam agam aagaaDh boDh keemat parai na paava-o.
He is unapproachable and unfathomable; His wisdom is deep and profound; His value cannot be appraised.
ਤਾਕੀ ਸਰਣਿ ਸਤਿ ਪੁਰਖ ਕੀ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਧਿਆਵਉ ॥੩॥
taakee saran sat purakh kee satgur purakh Dhi-aava-o. ||3||
I have taken to the Sanctuary of the True Lord, the Primal Being, and I meditate on the True Guru. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
He is unapproachable and unfathomable; His wisdom deep, His value beyond appraisal.
I have taken to the Sanctuary of the True Primal Being, and I meditate on the true Guru.
What no one can reach or measure is entered simply by taking refuge.
The One is "unapproachable and unfathomable" — beyond reach and beyond measure — yet the soul reaches Him through sanctuary and the Guru. What no appraisal can price is entered by taking refuge.
