Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Every shape, every color, every mind — the One is held within them all. So let me do the simplest, truest thing: praise the One.
The One lives in every shape, every color, every mind, so praise the One.
This is the closing line. Sagal roop varan man maahee — in all forms, all colors, and all minds.
The word varan, color, also meant caste, the old ranking of people by birth. So the line quietly makes everyone level. The One is in every kind of person, equally.
The shabad ends where Guru Nanak's love always lands. Ayko saalaahee — praise the One. Think of a big family photo. Every face is different, and every face belongs.
What is the simplest way you could say “thank you” to the Oneness today?
