Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I don't have it all figured out — so I simply come and take shelter, asking only to love more.
In good company, my heart blossoms open, and there I find the One.
The verse is refreshingly humble: I am foolish and ignorant — I don't have the answers — but I have taken to Sanctuary. Notice the move: not-knowing isn't a reason to stay away; it's exactly why you come and take shelter. And the one thing asked for is not cleverness but more devotion — I beg for the one blessing of love. Where does the heart blossom? In the Sat Sangat, good company. The whole path here is gentle and reachable: admit you don't have it figured out, take shelter, ask to love more, and keep good company. The blossoming takes care of itself.
Does admitting 'I don't know' feel like a weakness or actually a kind of honesty and strength?
