ਸਾਧੂ ਸੰਗੁ ਪਰਾਪਤਿ ਜਾ ਕਉ ਤਿਨ ਹੀ ਪਾਇਆ ਏਹੁ ਨਿਧਾਨੁ ॥
saaDhoo sang paraapat jaa ka-o tin hee paa-i-aa ayhu niDhaan.
He alone obtains this treasure, who joins the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.
ਗਾਵਉ ਗੁਣ ਕੀਰਤਨੁ ਨਿਤ ਸੁਆਮੀ ਕਰਿ ਕਿਰਪਾ ਨਾਨਕ ਦੀਜੈ ਦਾਨੁ ॥੨॥੨੯॥੧੧੫॥
gaava-o gun keertan nit su-aamee kar kirpaa naanak deejai daan. ||2||29||115||
O Lord and Master, mercifully bless Nanak with this gift, that he may ever sing the Glorious Praises of Your Kirtan. ||2||29||115||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Only those who reach the Sangat find this treasure.
Nanak says: Master, be kind and give me this gift, to sing Your praises every day.
Some treasures are only found in the Sangat.
Some treasures are found only in the Sangat.
SaaDhoo sang paraapat jaa ka-o -- whoever reaches the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One — finds the treasure, niDhaan. Keertan -- singing praise. Singing is asked for as a daan, a gift, and the practice itself is the blessing.
