Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Remember the One, and the aches inside you quietly leave. Then the Name — the most precious jewel there is — comes to live inside your mind and settles in to stay.
Remember the One, and the Name comes to live in your mind like a jewel that stays.
Jis simrat dookh sabh jaa-ay — remembering the One, all pain goes away. Simran is this remembering, keeping the One in mind.
Naam ratan vasai man aa-ay — the jewel of the Name comes to live in the mind. Naam is the Name, the living presence of the One. A ratan is a jewel. Calling the Name a jewel says it is the one thing we have that is truly worth something and truly lasts.
Vasai means it comes to live there. It moves in. It is not a visitor who drops by and leaves. Think of a friend who comes for one night compared with family who live in your home.
What good thing would you most want to come and stay inside your mind?
