ਹੋਹੁ ਦਇਆਲੁ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਮੇਲਿ ਤੂ ਮੋ ਕਉ ॥
hohu da-i-aal satgur mayl too mo ka-o.
Please be merciful, and unite me with the True Guru;
ਪਾਰਿ ਉਤਾਰੇ ਕੇਸਵਾ ॥੩॥
paar utaaray kaysvaa. ||3||
carry me across, O Lord. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Be kind to me, and bring me together with the True Guru.
Carry me across, O Keshav, my Lord.
A good guide who knows the way can bring you safely across.
Asking for kindness, you ask to be brought to the Guru, and to be carried across.
Hohu da-i-aal: be kind, be merciful. Satgur mayl: unite me with the satgur, the True Guru. Paar utaaray: carry me over to the far side. Think of a ferry pilot who knows every rock in the river and brings the boat in safely.
