ਤਿਨ੍ਹ੍ਹ ਨਾਹਿ ਨਰਕ ਨਿਵਾਸੁ ॥ ਨਿਤ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਗੁਣਤਾਸੁ ॥
tinH naahi narak nivaas. nit simar parabh guntaas.
Those who constantly remember God, the treasure of virtue, will never go to hell.
ਤੇ ਜਮੁ ਨ ਪੇਖਹਿ ਨੈਨ ॥ ਸੁਨਿ ਮੋਹੇ ਅਨਹਤ ਬੈਨ ॥੫॥
tay jam na paykheh nain. sun mohay anhat bain. ||5||
Those who listen, fascinated, to the Unstruck Sound-Current of the Word, will never have to see the Messenger of Death with their eyes. ||5||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who keep the One in mind, the treasure of everything good, live safe and unafraid.
And those who listen, spellbound, to the quiet music within are never troubled by fear -- nothing dark can touch them.
*Keep the good close, and you can live safe and unafraid.*
tin naahi narak nivaas -- no home in hell; tay jam na paykheh nain -- their eyes never see the Messenger of Death. Both promises come down to one gentle gift: a life lived safe, fearless and at peace. anhat bain -- the unstruck word that enchants the listener.
