Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whoever pleases God is not born again.
He stays wrapped in loving devotion, in the Love of the One.
The love that stays fresh also ends the long round of coming back.
Jo prabh bhaavai janam na aavai — the one who is pleasing to the One is not born again and again. Gurbani speaks of a long circle of lives, being born and dying over and over. This verse says that circle can end.
How? Har praym bhagat har preet rachai — by staying wrapped up in loving devotion, in the One's love.
The fresh, never-old love of the pause line is the same love that sets us free. Think of a child running around a playground, round and round, until a parent calls and the child runs into their arms. The running stops because love has called them home.
What is so absorbing and good that you'd never tire of it?
