Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Even the mightiest kings and emperors of the world lose their hold over such a person.
They have drunk deeply from the sweetest thing there is — the nectar of the Name.
Someone filled with the sweetness of the Name is no longer ruled by the world's big powers.
Baadisaah saah sabh vas kar deenay — kings and emperors are all brought under. Baadisaah and saah mean emperors and kings. They stand for every worldly power that usually makes people afraid. For the one rooted in the One, those powers lose their hold. They can no longer frighten.
Why? Amrit naam mahaa ras peenay — such a person drinks the highest taste of the Name. Amrit is the nectar of life that never ends. Ras means taste or sweetness. Think of a child who has just eaten a big, warm meal at home. A stranger waving sweets hardly tempts them. The sweetness of the Name outweighs anything the world can threaten.
What would it feel like to be so full inside that no threat could shake you?
