Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have tried every proper stage of life, and still my mind is not at peace.
I keep washing my body, but that alone does not bring understanding.
If only I could meet someone soaked in the love of the Highest One, who could wash the confusion and dust from my mind.
A heart is filled by love, more than by doing every stage of life by the book.
Sagal asram keenay — I went through all four asram, the four traditional stages of life: student, householder, retreat, and letting go. Yet manoo-aa nah pateenay — my mind was still not satisfied. Washing the body is bibaykheen, without real understanding.
It is like following a recipe step by step, but leaving out the one ingredient that gives it taste.
So the plea is to meet someone raataa, dyed through and through in the love of the Highest One. Such a person could wash the confusion out of the mind.
Have you ever done everything right and still felt something missing?
