Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Creator can lift up countless people who have stumbled, and it takes no time at all — not even a moment's delay. This is the One who ends the ache of the hurting and the sorrow of those with nothing. Kindness pours out freely, blessing everyone it reaches.
Kot patit udhaaray khin meh — "millions who have fallen are lifted in an instant." The word patit is often rendered "sinners," but the teaching here is about restoration, not condemnation: no one is too far gone, and the lifting is instantaneous, unearned. Deen darad dukh bhanjan names the One as the "Destroyer of the pain and sorrow of the poor" — a recurring Gauree note that grace bends especially toward those with the least.
Have you ever felt like you had messed up too badly to fix it? What might it feel like to know that is never true?
