Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one whose forehead carries the writing of good karma serves the True Guru, and the hard, heavy doors of the mind swing wide open.
Inside and outside, they see the One near at hand.
Nanak, the servant, says: such a one no longer comes and goes from one life to the next.
When the heavy doors of the mind open, you see the One near, inside and out.
Jis mastak karam likhi-aa lilaat: the one with karam written on the forehead. Karam can mean the fruit of what you have done, and it can also mean grace, a gift. Satgur sayvay khulhay kapaat: serving the True Guru, the heavy shutters open. Antar baahar niktay so-ay: the One is near, within and without. And then the coming and going ends.
What helps the shutters open so you can see what was always there?
