Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Nanak says: the one who carries this blessing written into their story becomes a full sharer in the treasure. They are welcomed right in among those who hold it.
Grace does more than give you the treasure. It welcomes you into the family that shares it.
Kaho naanak jis mastak laykh likhaa-ay — says Nanak, the one on whose forehead it is written. This is an old way of talking about destiny. Here it means those made ready by grace.
Now notice how warm the ending is. So ayt khajaanai la-i-aa ralaa-ay — that person is taken in and made a partner in this treasure. It is not something to keep for yourself. It is like being welcomed into a big family kitchen, where everyone cooks and everyone eats. Grace makes you belong to the company that shares.
What does it feel like to be welcomed "right in" to a group where something good is shared?
