Aasaa, Fifth Mehl, Tipadas:
ਓਹਾ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਪਿਰੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
ohaa paraym piree. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I seek the Love of my Beloved. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I seek only the Love of my Beloved.
Of all things to want, the purest is simply the love of the One — not its gifts.
The Pause is a single, pure desire: "I seek the Love of my Beloved." Of all things a soul could want, this one wants only love — not its gifts, but the Beloved Himself. The whole shabad will measure everything against this one longing (cf. Shabad 62).
