Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I tried everything I could think of, and honestly, I wore myself out. The troubles just would not leave me be.
But then I heard something hopeful. In the company of the wise, in that good shelter, they finally fade away.
This one says that good company can do what trying alone could not.
Kar kar haari-o anik baho bhaatee — trying and trying, in so many ways, I got worn out. That is a very human thing to admit. Still the troubles would not leave.
Then comes the turn. Ayk baat sun — I heard one thing. Taakee otaa saaDhsang mit jaahee — in the otaa, the shelter, of the saaDhsang, they fade away. SaaDhsang means the company of wise and good people.
Think of studying alone for hours and getting nowhere. Then a friend sits down beside you, and it starts to make sense. When an inner struggle feels too heavy to carry alone, wise and caring people can help.
Have you ever solved something that stumped you alone the moment you were with the right people?
