The Prayer That Brought Life Back

ਭਗਤ ਜਨਾ ਕੀ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਸੁਣੀ ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਆਪਿ ॥
bhagat janaa kee bayntee sunee parabh aap.
God Himself has heard the prayers of His humble devotees.
ਰੋਗ ਮਿਟਾਇ ਜੀਵਾਲਿਅਨੁ ਜਾ ਕਾ ਵਡ ਪਰਤਾਪੁ ॥੧॥
rog mitaa-ay jeevaali-an jaa kaa vad partaap. ||1||
He dispelled my disease, and rejuvenated me; His glorious radiance is so great! ||1||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

The One itself listened to the prayers of those who love it.

It lifted the sickness away and brought life flooding back — its light is greater than words.

A heartfelt prayer can bring life flooding back.
The deeper layer

bhagat janaa kee bayntee, sunee prabh aap — the One hears the prayers of those who love; rog mitaa-ay jeevaali-an, jaa kaa vad partaap — sickness lifted, life brought back.

A Question to Sit With

What has made you feel alive again after a hard time?
