Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The devotees look beautiful in the One's true court; they live in the true Word.
Love wells up in them and pulls them; forever dyed in that love, they taste the essence of the One on their tongues. Fruitful are the lives of those who recognize the One and hold it in the heart. Without the teaching, people wander crying, ruined by loving a second.
The eleventh Pauree pictures the devotees as beautiful — "they look beauteous in the True Court" — beauty being here a matter of a heart dyed in love, not of features. "Love wells up in them and pulls them": devotion is portrayed as an upwelling, a spring rising on its own, drawing the person along. Their lives are "fruitful"; the loveless "wander crying." The whole difference is love, welling or absent.
When has love for something 'welled up' and pulled you along, almost without effort?
