Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
If you understand that the One is near, how could you do wrong?
Someone who piles up what is harmful walks around afraid, all the time.
The One is near, and still they have not found this secret.
Without the True Guru, everyone is caught by Maya, the pull of the shiny world.
When you feel how near the One is, doing wrong loses its pull.
Nikat bujhai so buraa ki-o karai: one who understands the One is near, how could they do harm? Bikh sanchai nit dartaa firai: gathering bikh, poison, a person goes about always afraid. Bhaid is the secret: the One is close, and still unseen. Maa-i-aa is the pull of the world's glitter, and without the Guru everyone is caught in it.
How might you act differently if you felt watched over, in a good way?
