O Merciful Master of the meek, You are my Lord and Master, O Merciful Master of the meek.
ਜਾਚਉ ਸੰਤ ਰਵਾਲ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
jaacha-o sant ravaal. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I yearn for the dust of the feet of the Saints. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are kind to the humble, my Master. You are kind to the humble.
All I ask for is the dust of the saints' feet.
*The gentle and humble have a kind friend in the One.*
The rahau. deenaa naath da-i-aal -- the merciful protector of the meek, repeated warmly. jaacha-o sant ravaal -- the whole request is the dust of the saints' feet, a place near them. The hinge line of the hymn: refuge belongs to the gentle.
