Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The eight wonder-powers and the nine treasures are all in the Naam. It comes as a gift to the one the One gives it to.
O One, Your servants live by repeating Your Name again and again.
Nanak says: meeting the Guru, the lotus of the heart opens wide.
Every treasure there is lives in the Naam, and it comes as a gift that makes the heart bloom.
Asat siDh nav niDh ayh: the eight wonder-powers and the nine treasures, old names for every marvel and every riches people dream of, are all in the Naam. Karam paraapat jis naam dayh: it comes by grace, to the one the One gives it to.
Parabh jap jap jeeveh tayray daas: Your servants live by repeating Your Name. Gur mil naanak kamal pargaas: meeting the Guru, the lotus opens. A lotus grows up out of muddy water and opens its petals clean and bright in the sun. The heart opens like that.
What does it feel like when your heart 'opens up' with joy?
