ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਹਮਾਰੈ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਸਉਣ ॥
parabhoo hamaarai saastar sa-un.
God is my Shaastra and my favorable omen.
ਸੂਖ ਸਹਜ ਆਨੰਦ ਗ੍ਰਿਹ ਭਉਣ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
sookh sahj aanand garih bha-un. ||1|| rahaa-o.
In His Home and Mansion, I find peace, poise and bliss. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is my book of wisdom and my lucky sign.
In the One's home, I find peace, calm steadiness, and joy.
The One can be your steady sign, so you need no lucky charms.
With the One as your sign, you need no other sign, and you find peace, steadiness and joy at home in the One.
This is the rahaa-o, the "pause" line, the centre of the shabad. Prabhoo hamaarai saastar sa-un: the One is my scripture and my good omen. Some people check the stars or the calendar for a lucky sign before they begin something; here the One is enough. Within that home come sookh sahj aanand: peace, sahaj (natural, easy steadiness), and bliss.
