Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When it pleases the One, we're brought to meet those who face the teaching, and their hymns turn sweet to us.
Very lucky are the beloved students of the teaching — through the One they reach the highest, quietest peace.
The verse credits even the meeting to grace — "when it pleases the Lord" — so that finding good companions is not our engineering but a gift. And it promises the Gurmukhs "the supreme state of Nirvaanaa" — here not a cold extinction but the deepest peace, the fire of restless wanting finally gone out. The hymns "turn sweet" once the heart is ready; sweetness is a sign the meeting has landed. Fortune, again, is inner and given.
When did the right person or teaching arrive in your life at just the right time, as if by grace?
