ਭ੍ਰਮ ਭੈ ਬਿਨਸਿ ਗਏ ਖਿਨ ਭੀਤਰਿ ਅੰਧਕਾਰ ਪ੍ਰਗਟੇ ਚਾਨਾਣੁ ॥
bharam bhai binas ga-ay khin bheetar anDhkaar pargatay chaanaan.
Doubt and fear have been dispelled in an instant, and in the darkness, the Divine Light shines forth.
ਸਾਸਿ ਸਾਸਿ ਆਰਾਧੈ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਸਦਾ ਸਦਾ ਜਾਈਐ ਕੁਰਬਾਣੁ ॥੨॥੨੧॥੧੦੭॥
saas saas aaraaDhai naanak sadaa sadaa jaa-ee-ai kurbaan. ||2||21||107||
With each and every breath, Nanak worships and adores the Lord; forever and ever, I am a sacrifice to Him. ||2||21||107||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In one moment the doubt and fear broke apart, and light came up right where the dark had been.
Nanak says: with every breath I worship the One — forever and ever, I give myself to Him.
When the light appears, the dark is simply gone.
bharam bhai binas ga-ay khin bheetar — doubt and fear undone in an instant. anDhkaar pargatay chaanaan — light appearing in the dark, a classic image of sudden recognition. saas saas aaraaDhai — remembrance with every breath.
