Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whoever sings and holds the One in mind — that very person becomes a home where the One lives.
How blessed they are, with the Beloved dwelling in their heart and goodness shining from their whole being.
Anyone who keeps the One in mind becomes a home where the One lives.
This line puts everyone on the same level. What makes someone holy is not rank, caste or status. It is a heart that keeps the One in mind.
Jo jan gaa-ay dhi-aa-ay jas thaakur — whoever sings and thinks on the praises of the Master. Taas parabhoo hai thaanaanaa — that very person becomes the thaan, the home, where the One lives.
"Good karma shining from the forehead" is a warm picture of inner goodness that shows. Think of a friend who walks into the room and everyone feels a little happier. You can feel it around them.
This blessing is grace, always there for anyone. The singing heart simply opens up enough to hold it.
What does someone who "has goodness shining from them" look like to you?
