Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Nanak says: when the One casts a glance of grace on someone,
the One gives them the nectar of the Naam.
Then the craving for what is harmful comes to an end in the mind.
The One carries out the One's own will.
A glance of grace brings the nectar of the Naam, and the craving for harm comes to an end.
The close rests everything on nadar — the glance of grace — freely given, not earned. With it comes the amrit naam (nectar-Name), and the baasnaa (the craving for what harms) simply fades, quieted from within rather than fought. The last line trusts the bhaanaa, the One's will — the flow of how things unfold. It is a deeply reassuring ending: the healing is done by grace, and the outcome is safe in the One's hands.
What is a habit that fades on its own once something better fills its place?
