Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Don't get into arguments and quarrels with anyone.
With your tongue, drink in the sweet essence of Raam, the One.
Let arguments go, and use your tongue to taste the sweetness of the One.
Baad bibaad means arguments and debates. Namdev says kaahoo si-o na keejai: don't argue with anyone.
Instead, rasnaa raam rasaa-in peejai: with your tongue, drink the sweet essence of the One. Rasaa-in is the finest, sweetest part of something.
Think of two friends fighting over who's right about a movie. They could spend that time watching another good movie together.
Namdev would rather use his breath to taste the Naam than to win a fight.
When is it better to let an argument go?
