Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whatever You do, I take it as good, and I have let go of feeling pulled two ways.
Nanak says: God, You alone are the great Giver; lift me up in the Sangat.
Trust quiets the tug-of-war inside.
Jo tumH karahu so-ee bhal maanai: whatever You do, I take as good. DubiDhaa door tarahu: dubiDhaa is being pulled two ways, always second-guessing, and I have set it down. Think of a tug-of-war rope finally going slack, because no one is pulling anymore. Trust here is not giving up. It is stopping the endless tug inside.
Then naanak kay parabh tum hee daatay: You are the great Giver. Satsang lay mohi uDhrahu: lift me up in the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One.
When has letting go of trying to control something felt like relief?
