Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Seeing them face to face, I am made pure. They have planted the mantra of the One, Har, Har, firmly inside me.
Meeting holy people face to face makes you clean inside, and they plant the Naam firmly in you.
The verse says darsan bhaytat hot puneetaa. Darsan means seeing, meeting face to face. Puneetaa means made pure. Just being with such people freshens the heart.
Then: har har mantar darirh-aa-i-o, "they have planted the Lord's mantra firmly within me." A mantar is a sacred word to repeat. The word darirh means firm and rooted.
That word matters. What holy people give lasts longer than the buzz after a fun party. It is like a seed planted in soil. It takes root, stays, and grows.
What good habit or idea did someone plant in you that still grows?
