ਭੈ ਬਿਨਸੇ ਤਿਹੁ ਲੋਕ ਕੇ ਪਾਏ ਸੁਖ ਥਾਨ ॥
bhai binsay tihu lok kay paa-ay sukh thaan.
The fear of the three worlds is dispelled, and I have found my place of rest and peace.
ਦਇਆ ਕਰੀ ਸਮਰਥ ਗੁਰਿ ਬਸਿਆ ਮਨਿ ਨਾਮ ॥੩॥
da-i-aa karee samrath gur basi-aa man naam. ||3||
The all-powerful Guru has taken pity upon me, and the Naam has come to dwell in my mind. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The fears that used to follow me everywhere have faded, and I have found a place inside me that rests.
The all-powerful Guru showed me kindness, and the Naam came to live in my mind.
When something steady lives in you, fear has less room.
Fear falls away, and a resting place is found.
Bhai binsay tihu lok kay — the fear of the three worlds is gone. Tihu lok, the three worlds, is a way of saying everywhere. Paa-ay sukh thaan — I found a place of peace.
Da-i-aa karee samrath gur basi-aa man naam — the all-powerful Guru showed kindness, and the Name came to live in my mind. Think of a child after a bad dream, curled up safe and falling asleep again.
