Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Husband and wife rejoice together, celebrating the victory of the One.
Nanak says: I would give anything for the humble servant of the One, who sets everyone free.
The image of "husband and wife rejoicing together" brings the teaching home into ordinary family life — this is Grihast, the householder path. Liberation is not celebrated by renouncing the home and fleeing to a forest; it is celebrated right in the marriage, the household, the shared everyday life. The "victory" is won and enjoyed in the midst of ordinary domestic love. And the closing sacrifice is to "the humble servant who emancipates everyone" — once more the raag insists that the truly free set others free. Joy shared in a home, freedom passed to everyone: this is devotion fully at home in real life.
Do you have to go somewhere special to find something sacred, or can it happen right in your everyday home life?
