Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The harmful pulls that used to push me around have been driven off, through the chant the Perfect Guru gave me.
What can anyone do to me now? The light of my God is that great.
Harmful pulls back off when you lean on the One's great light.
Nivray doot dusat bairaa-ee — the troublemakers and enemies are driven off. Read most kindly, they are the harmful impulses that unsettle us from inside. Gur pooray kaa japi-aa jaap — by repeating the Perfect Guru's chant. Kahaa karai ko-ee baychaaraa — what can any poor creature do? Parabh mayray kaa bad partaap — the radiance of my God is great. Think of switching on a light in a dark room; the shadows go without a fight.
What harmful pull loses its grip when you hold something good close?
