Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Trust the One and remember the Naam, and peace comes.
People say all sorts of things, but the Guru brought the One home to my heart.
Trusting the One brings peace, and the Guru brings the One right into our own heart.
This is the Rahao, the "pause" line. It is the center of the shabad.
Ih parteet govind kee jap har sukh paa-i-aa means "this trust in the Lord of the world, and peace, come from remembering the One." Parteet means trust, a steady leaning on the One. It is the same quiet trust that Japji Sahib calls mannai, taking the Word to heart. Sukh means peace and ease.
Anik baataa sabh kar rahay gur ghar lai aa-i-aa means everyone is talking in many ways, but the Guru has brought the One into my home.
Think of a group chat full of loud opinions about how to be happy. Everyone has an answer. Then someone who really loves you comes to your door and just sits with you. That quiet visit says more than all the messages. The Guru brings the One home like that.
Where did you find something good that you had been searching all over for?
