Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One protects the One's own people.
The cruel and wicked who fight against them grow tired and give up.
Without the True Guru, there is nowhere to go.
People wander through land after land, worn out and hurting.
The One protects the One's own people, and without the Guru you wander and grow tired.
apnay jan prabh aap rakhay — the One protects the One's own; those who would harm them grow weary. bin gur saachay nahee jaa-ay — no solid ground without the Guru.
If someone is being unkind to you or hurting you, that is never something you have to accept. Telling a grown-up you trust is always the right thing to do.
When have you felt watched over or kept safe without quite knowing how?
