Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When the kind One, the treasure house of mercy, looks on a person with love, that person sings the praises of the Lord of the Universe.
Nanak says: this kind of wealth is gathered by the gurmukh, the one who turns toward the Guru.
The treasure of the Naam comes as a gift.
The One is kirpaa niDh — a treasure house of kindness. When that kindness reaches a person, they start singing the praises of the One.
Gurmukh paavai — this wealth is found by the gurmukh. A gurmukh is anyone who turns toward the Guru's teaching. It is received, not earned. Think of a birthday present. You did not buy it; someone who loves you gave it. And anyone who turns toward the teaching can receive it.
What good thing is available to anyone who's willing to reach for it?
