Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
God has become kind and compassionate; He has cut the noose of death from my neck.
Says Nanak: now that I have obtained the Saadh Sangat, I shall not be reincarnated again.
In the company of the holy, the endless turning finally stops.
The close: mercy "cut the noose of death," and obtaining the Saadh Sangat ends the cycle — "I shall not have to be reincarnated again." The company of the holy is where the endless turning finally stops.
