Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O Life of the world, endless One, master of everything, shaper of destiny! Whichever way you turn me, that is the way I will go.
This is a prayer of complete trust: wherever You lead me, I will go.
Jagjeevan aprampar su-aamee jagdeesur purakh biDhaatay — Life of the world, endless Master, Lord of the universe, Maker of destiny. Jit maarag tum parayrhu su-aamee tit maarag ham jaatay — whichever path You send me on, Master, that is the path I take.
This is surrender to Hukam, the flow of existence, the One's will. The soul moves the way the One moves. Think of a little kid holding a parent's hand across a busy street, stepping where the parent steps. Many people today describe this not as giving up, but as trust.
What would it feel like to fully trust where life is taking you?
