Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The unchanging One never comes and never goes.
Its good qualities are endless. How could I ever count them?
Its storehouse overflows with the jewels of the Name.
The One gives support to every single heart.
The Guru says the One never changes, and the One's treasure is shared with every heart.
Aa-ay na jaavai nihchal dhanee — the steady Master does not come or go. Nihchal means unmoving, always the same. Everything else in the world comes and goes, like the seasons. The One stays.
Bay-ant gunaa means good qualities without end. Trying to count them is like trying to count the stars.
Laal naam jaa kai bharay bhandaar — the One's storehouse is full of the rubies of the Name. Bhandaar is a storehouse. Laal is a ruby, a precious red jewel.
Sagal ghataa dayvai aadhaar — the One gives support to every heart. This treasure is not locked away. It is poured out for everyone, like rain falling on every field.
What is a gift you have that you could share instead of keep?
