ਦੁਖ ਬਿਨਸੇ ਸੁਖ ਹਰਿ ਗੁਣ ਗਾਇ ॥
dukh binsay sukh har gun gaa-ay.
Your pain shall depart, and in peace, you shall sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord.
ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰਾ ਭੇਟਿਆ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
gur pooraa bhayti-aa liv laa-ay. ||1|| rahaa-o.
Meeting the Perfect Guru, let yourself be absorbed in the Lord's Love. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Lean like that, and pain lifts and peace comes as you sing what is good. Meeting the complete teacher, let yourself sink into that love and simply be carried.
Sinking into love, rather than gripping and controlling, is what brings peace.
The Rahao. Dukh binsay sukh har gun gaa-ay -- pain ends, peace comes through praise. Gur pooraa bhayti-aa liv laa-ay -- meeting the perfect teacher, attach your love (liv). Liv is the thread of loving attention (see 358). The pause line promises that letting go into that love, rather than gripping, is what brings the peace.
