Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One Himself gave me something steady to lean on.
Anyone who takes shelter there stands in a quiet, lasting honor that never fades.
The One gives us something steady to lean on.
Charan kamal kaa aasraa deeno parabh aap — the One gave me the support of the "lotus feet." Aasraa means something to lean on, and lotus feet is a loving way to speak of the One's presence. Think of a railing on a steep staircase. You climb with more courage when your hand is on it.
Parabh sarnaagat jan paray — the humble ones come into the One's shelter. Taa kaa sad partaap — and their honor lasts forever. It is a quiet honor that does not fade, the kind of respect people feel for someone truly good.
What can you lean on when everything shakes?
