Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
By the Divine Guru's grace, you are given the Bani, the Word sweet as nectar. By the Divine Guru's grace, you speak of the One no words can hold.
By the Divine Guru's grace, your body becomes sweet as nectar. By the Divine Guru's grace, you chant the Naam.
The Guru's light makes your words, and even your body, sweet as nectar.
Ja-o gurday-o ta amrit baanee — when the Divine Guru comes, the baanee, the holy word, becomes amrit, nectar. Ta akath kahaanee — you can speak the akath kahaanee, the story no words can fully hold.
Ta amrit dayh — even the dayh, the body, feels touched by nectar. Naam jap layhi — you chant the Naam and keep it in mind. Jap here is warm and joyful, like humming a favorite song all day because you love it.
Is there a song or a word that makes you feel more alive when you say it?
