ਕੋਟਿ ਪਰਾਧ ਮਿਟੇ ਤੇਰੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਦਰਸਨਿ ਦੂਖੁ ਉਤਾਰਿਓ ॥
kot paraaDh mitay tayree sayvaa darsan dookh utaari-o.
Millions of sins are erased, by serving You; the Blessed Vision of Your Darshan drives away sorrow.
ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪਤ ਮਹਾ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਇਓ ਚਿੰਤਾ ਰੋਗੁ ਬਿਦਾਰਿਓ ॥੧॥
naam japat mahaa sukh paa-i-o chintaa rog bidaari-o. ||1||
Chanting Your Name, I have obtained supreme peace, and my anxieties and diseases have been cast out. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Millions of wrongs are erased by serving You; seeing You drives sorrow away.
Saying Your Name, I've found the highest peace, and my worries and sicknesses are cast out.
Remembrance works like medicine on both the heart's sorrow and the body's afflictions — clearing what troubles you, inside and out.
The verse piles up the effects of remembrance — wrongs erased, sorrow gone, "supreme peace," anxieties and even "diseases" cast out. The healing vocabulary of the raag returns: the Name works like medicine on both the heart's sorrow and the body's afflictions. Serving and seeing the One is the treatment that clears what troubles a person, inside and out.
A Question to Sit With
What sorrow or worry would you most like 'cast out'? What healing do you long for?
