ਕੋਈ ਆਣਿ ਸਦੇਸਾ ਦੇਇ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੇਰਾ ਰਿਦ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਮਨਿ ਤਨਿ ਮੀਠ ਲਗਈਆ ॥
ko-ee aan sadaysaa day-ay parabh kayraa rid antar man tan meeth laga-ee-aa.
If only someone would bring me news of God; He seems so sweet to my heart, mind and body.
ਮਸਤਕੁ ਕਾਟਿ ਦੇਉ ਚਰਣਾ ਤਲਿ ਜੋ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਮੇਲੇ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲਈਆ ॥੩॥
mastak kaat day-o charnaa tal jo har parabh maylay mayl mila-ee-aa. ||3||
I would cut off my head and place it under the feet of that one who leads me to meet and unite with my Lord God. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
If only someone would bring me even one word of news about the One -- how sweet that would be to my whole heart.
I would give everything to the person who could lead me to that meeting.
*Sometimes even a little news of what you love feels precious.*
ko-ee aan sadaysaa -- longing for even news of the Beloved. mastak kaat day-o charnaa tal -- total, grateful self-giving to the one who unites the seeker with the One.
