Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Saying the Naam, nothing blocks my way.
Hearing the Naam, the messenger of death runs far off. Saying the Naam, every pain is gone. Repeating the Naam, the feet of the One come to live in me.
With the Naam, the way is clear, pain goes, and the One comes to live inside you.
Naam lait kichh bighan na laagai: saying the Naam, no obstacle sticks. Naam sunat jam dhoorahu bhaagai: hearing the Naam, jam, the messenger of death, runs far away. Even the biggest fear of all keeps its distance. Naam lait sabh dookhah naas: every pain is wiped out. Naam japat har charan nivaas: the One's feet, the One's nearness, make a home inside.
Think of a hiking trail with fallen branches. Someone walks ahead and clears them, and the path opens all the way to the top.
What helps you keep going when something in your way feels too big?
