Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O mother, I remember the One: Raam, Raam, Raam.
Without the One, there is no other at all.
With every breath, night and day, I think of the One's lotus feet.
With every breath, day and night, your heart can rest on the One, and there is no other.
This is the rahaa-o, the "pause" line, the centre of the shabad. Maa-ee simrat raam raam raam: O mother, I remember the One, again and again. Prabh binaa naahee hor: without the One, there is no other. Charnaarbind means lotus feet, a loving picture of the One's nearness, the way a small child holds on close at a parent's feet. Saasan nis bhor: with each breath, through the night and into the morning.
What is always in the back of your mind, even when you're busy?
