Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whatever aligns with that flow is a clean and good act; whatever aligns with it is truly living rightly.
Every treasure, every good quality, is already held by You. So Your servant simply asks — that's the whole prayer.
Living rightly means moving with the One's flow, not ticking boxes on a checklist.
Jo tudh bhaavai so nirmal karmaa — whatever pleases You is a pure action. Karma here means action, what we do. Jo tudh bhaavai so sach dharmaa — whatever pleases You is true dharma, right living.
So right action gets a new meaning. It is not a checklist we finish. It is lining up with Hukam, the flow of existence. Think of a musician in an orchestra. Playing well is not only hitting the right notes. It is playing together with everyone, following the conductor.
Sarab nidhaan gun tum hee paas — every treasure and every good quality is already with the One. So the servant's whole stance is ardaas, a humble asking, a prayer. Goodness is joining in with the flow. It is not a private trophy.
What does it mean to do the right thing because it fits, not because you'll be rewarded?
