Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One's Name and praises are beyond all price; they come to the one the One touches with kindness.
In the Sangat, meeting the One in love, a whole life settles into peace.
The Name is priceless, so it can only be given.
Amrit naam nirmolak — the Name is sweet as nectar and nirmolak, beyond any price. Tin paa-i-o jis kirpain — it comes to the one the One shows kindness. None of the big feats in the earlier verses can buy it. It is a gift.
Think of a friend's hug. You cannot buy it in a shop. It can only be given. The Name is like that. It is found in saaDhsang, the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One. There a whole life passes in sukh, which means peace. The verse calls a life a night, and this night becomes restful at last.
What good things in your life came as gifts rather than rewards you earned?
