Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have fallen in love with the One.
My true Guru is always by my side, always ready to help. The Guru has torn down the flag that pain had planted in me.
Love for the One brings a helper who is always there.
This is the Rahao, the "pause" line at the center of the shabad. Mayraa laago raam si-o hayt — my heart has fallen in love with the One. Hayt means love. The satgur, the true teacher, is sadaa sahaa-ee, always my helper.
Jin dukh kaa kaati-aa kayt — the one who cut down the flag of pain. A kayt is a flag. Pain had planted its flag in the heart, like a flag on a captured hill. The teacher pulled it down.
Who is someone in your life who makes a hard day feel lighter just by being near?
