Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The restless burning inside me went out, and I felt cool and calm — the One kept me safe.
Nanak says: I rest in the shelter of God, whose glory is greater than I can say.
The fire has gone out.
Jalan bujhee seetal bha-ay raakhay prabh aap — the burning went out, I became cool, and the One Itself kept me safe. Jalan is the burning of restless wanting. Seetal means cool.
Naanak prabh sarnaagatee jaa kaa vad partaap — Nanak rests in the shelter of the One whose glory is great. Sarnaagatee means coming into shelter. Partaap means glory, a great shining light. Think of coming in from a scorching day to a cool, shady house.
What cools you down when you are all fired up?
