Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Inside the home of your own self is a treasure, beyond reach and without end.
Those who follow the Guru's teaching find it, thinking over the Word.
They find the nine treasures of the Naam right inside their own home.
They stay dyed forever in the color of love, and they melt into the Truth.
The treasure is already inside you, in the home of your own heart.
Ghar meh vasat: the treasure is in the home. Agam apaaraa: beyond reach, without end. Gurmat khojeh: searching by the Guru's teaching. Nav nidh: the nine treasures, every kind of wealth, found ghar hee maahi, right inside. Sadaa rang raatay: dyed forever in love's color.
Guru Amar Das often turns the search inward like this. Think of hunting all over the house for your glasses while they sit on your head.
What good thing might already be inside you, waiting to be noticed?
