Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Body and mind cool right down, like a fever finally breaking. And all at once you feel free — light, unburdened.
Nanak says: your love, your attention, the very breath in you, everything you have — it all gathers around one glad thing, the sight of the One.
Body and mind cool down, and freedom comes.
Tan man seetal bha-ay — body and mind became cool. Seetal means cool and soothed, and this relief is a favorite ending in Raag Bilaaval. Ab muktay sansaaree — now I am free, even while living in the world.
Then everything gathers in one place. Love, attention, breath and all one has rest in darsaaree, the sight of the One. Think of a fever breaking after a long night. The whole body relaxes at once.
What is something that cools you down and settles you when you are overheated inside?
