Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Your devotees belong to You, and You belong to Your devotees. You Yourself move them to sing Your praise.
Every being and every creature is in Your hands. Nanak's Lord is always with him.
The One and the ones who love the One belong to each other, and the One is always near.
Tayray bhagat bhagtan kaa aap — Your devotees are Yours, and You are theirs. A bhagat is someone who loves the One with their whole heart. The belonging goes both ways. It is like a family. You belong to your family, and your family belongs to you.
Even the praise comes from the One. Apnee mahimaa aapay jaap — You Yourself help them sing Your praise.
Then the shabad gathers everything up. Every living thing rests in the One's hands. And the last words bring comfort. Naanak kay prabh sad hee saath — Nanak's Lord is always with him. The One is always near.
When do you most feel that you are not on your own?
