Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Turned toward the Guru, a heart carries not even a speck of doubt, and worry drains away.
Whatever comes, it meets it with an easy poise -- there's nothing more that needs saying.
Nanak says: the One listens to the ones it has made its own.
A short Guru Amar Das shalok. Gurmukh sansaa mool na hova-ee -- "not even a root of doubt" -- and chintaa vichahu jaa-ay, worry leaving from within, describe sahaj: the natural ease of a mind no longer at war with what is. Jo kichh ho-ay so sehjay ho-ay -- meeting whatever comes with poise -- is that ease in action. The closing tenderness: the One hears those it has claimed, an image of being listened to with care.
What is one worry you could set down if you trusted things would work out?
