Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are the Great Giver, O generous One, always giving.
Every moment, again and again, I bow to You.
The One is the Great Giver, so every moment is a moment to bow in thanks.
This is the rahaa-o, the "pause" line, the center of the shabad. tum daatay parabh daynhaar — You are the Giver, the generous One who keeps on giving.
nimakh nimakh tis namaskaar — every nimakh, every blink of an eye, I bow to You. Think of how often you breathe without even noticing. The Guru wants thankfulness to be like that: a way of living, as steady as breathing, much more than a one-time "thank you" card.
How would your day feel if you noticed one thing to be thankful for every hour?
