Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those the One keeps joined from the very beginning are never separated. They melt into the Word.
Only the One knows His own power. Turned toward the Guru, a person comes to recognize the Name.
A bond the One holds never breaks.
This verse closes the shabad. Jo Dhur rakhi-an mayl milaa-ay — those the One keeps joined from the very beginning kaday na vichhurheh, are never separated. They are sabad samaa-ay, melted into the Word. Think of a strong knot tied by the best hands. Tugging only pulls it tighter.
Aapnee kalaa aapay prabh jaanai — only the One knows His own kalaa, His power. Gurmukh naam pachhaanai — the one turned toward the Guru comes to recognize the Name.
What is a bond in your life that you trust will never break?
