Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Light of the One's Naam shines inside absolutely everything. Turned toward the Guru, you come to sense the One no eyes can see.
Nanak says: the One is kind to the humble. With a heart full of love, you melt into the Naam and feel completely at home.
The same Light shines in everything, and it is kind to the humble.
Raam naam hai jot sabaa-ee: the Light of the Name shines in everything. Gurmukh aapay alakh lakha-ee-aa: the gurmukh comes to know the alakh, the One who cannot be seen.
Naanak deen da-i-aal bha-ay hai: the One is kind to the deen, the humble and the low. Grace flows toward them first. Think of rain, which always runs to the lowest ground. Then bhagat bhaa-ay har naam sama-ee-aa: through loving devotion, one melts into the Name. That is where the song comes to rest.
Why do you think kindness so often flows toward those who feel small or left out?
