ਤੂੰ ਹਰਿ ਭਜੁ ਮਨ ਮੇਰੇ ਪਦੁ ਨਿਰਬਾਨੁ ॥
tooN har bhaj man mayray pad nirbaan.
Meditate and vibrate upon the Lord, O my mind, and you shall obtain the state of Nirvaanaa.
ਬਹੁਰਿ ਨ ਹੋਇ ਤੇਰਾ ਆਵਨ ਜਾਨੁ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
bahur na ho-ay tayraa aavan jaan. ||1|| rahaa-o.
You shall not have to come and go in reincarnation any longer. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Remember the One, my mind, and come into the deepest peace.
You'll not have to keep coming and going anymore.
The one treasure worth wanting is a peace no change of fortune can give or take.
The Pause line offers the fruit — "the state of Nirvaanaa," the deep peace where restless wanting has gone out — and an end to the "coming and going," the circling of an unsettled life. Against P0's indifference to empire and begging, this names what Naam Dayv does value: the peace of remembrance, which no change of fortune can give or take. That is the treasure worth wanting.
A Question to Sit With
What peace do you want that couldn't be handed to you by good luck or taken by bad?
