Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whoever does only what pleases the dear One
has a body always at peace, and a mind joined to the flow of the One's will.
They serve their One with natural ease.
Nanak says: the Naam comes to live in their mind.
When we love what the One loves, doing right becomes easy, and the Name settles in the heart.
so-ee karay je har jee-o bhaavai — they do only what pleases the Dear One. bhaanai chit laavai — they join their mind to the bhaanaa, the One's will, the way life flows.
Think of a kid who loves helping a parent cook. It never feels like a chore, because they want to be there. Serving the One becomes that natural, sahj subhaa-ay, with ease. And Nanak says the Name comes to live in that heart and stays.
When has doing the right thing felt easy instead of like a struggle?
