Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Sanda and Marka, his teachers, made a complaint.
All the demons kept trying, and it came to nothing.
The One protected the humble devotee and kept his honor.
What can those who were made do against the One?
Prahlaad's teachers complain, and every effort against him fizzles out.
sandai markai kee-ee pookaar — Sanda and Marka, his teachers, carried their complaint higher. The verse calls those against him dait, demons. Here they are simply people whose efforts come to nothing: sabhay dait rahay jhakh maar, they all kept trying, in vain.
bhagat janaa kee pat raakhai so-ee — the One kept the devotee safe and kept his honor whole. What can anyone who was made do against the One who made them? Think of building a sand wall to hold back the tide.
Who or what makes you feel safe when others are trying to scare or pressure you?
