ਇਹੁ ਮਨੁ ਹੋਆ ਸਾਧ ਧੂਰਿ ॥
ih man ho-aa saaDh Dhoor.
This mind has become the dust of the Holy;
ਨਿਤ ਦੇਖੈ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਹਜੂਰਿ ॥੩॥
nit daykhai su-aamee hajoor. ||3||
I behold my Lord and Master, continually, ever-present. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
This mind has become humble, like the dust beneath holy people's feet.
Every day I see my Master, right here, always present.
A humble heart is the one that can see what is right in front of it.
A humble mind sees the One, present every day.
Ih man ho-aa saaDh Dhoor: this mind has become the dust of the holy. Dust lies low on the path, under everyone's feet. To become like it means letting go of pride.
Nit daykhai su-aamee hajoor: every day it sees the Master, hajoor, right here in front of it. Think of looking for your glasses everywhere, and then finding them on your own head. The One was close the whole time. A humble heart notices.
A Question to Sit With
When has staying humble helped you notice something you would have missed?
