ਪ੍ਰਭ ਚਰਨ ਕਮਲ ਅਪਾਰ ॥
parabh charan kamal apaar.
God's Lotus Feet are Infinite.
ਹਉ ਜਾਉ ਸਦ ਬਲਿਹਾਰ ॥
ha-o jaa-o sad balihaar.
I am forever a sacrifice to Them.
ਮਨਿ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਲਾਗੀ ਤਾਹਿ ॥
man pareet laagee taahi.
My mind is in love with Them.
ਤਜਿ ਆਨ ਕਤਹਿ ਨ ਜਾਹਿ ॥੧॥
taj aan kateh na jaahi. ||1||
If I were to abandon Them, there is nowhere else I could go. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The nearness of the One is endless, and I would give myself to it a thousand times over.
My heart is in love with it, and honestly, there is nowhere else I would even want to go.
*When you love something with your whole heart, there is nowhere else you'd rather be.*
charan kamal apaar -- the infinite lotus-feet. taj aan kateh na jaahi -- if I left, there is nowhere else to go. Guru Arjan's short lines make love sound simple and settled: this is home.
A Question to Sit With
Where, or with whom, do you feel there is nowhere else you'd rather be?
