Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O One, please be kind to me, so that I may bow down at the feet of the holy people.
Blessed, blessed are the holy people who know the One. Meeting the holy, even people who have gone badly wrong are lifted up and saved.
Humility opens the way, and being near people who know the One lifts anyone up.
Ham saaDh janaa(N) pag pari-aa means "let me fall at the feet of the holy people." Bowing at someone's feet is an old way of saying, "I am here to learn from you." Even that humility is asked for as a kindness from the One.
Dhan dhan means "blessed, blessed." Patit uDhri-aa means "the fallen are lifted up." Think of a friend reaching down a hand to pull you out of a ditch. Nobody is written off. Being near the holy is enough to start the climb.
What have you learned just by being near someone you admire?
