Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Your Names, O One, are countless and too deep to understand. My Sovereign is beyond reach, beyond understanding.
Good and wise people have thought about You with their whole minds, yet they have not found even a tiny grain of Your worth.
The One has more Names than anyone can count, and no mind can put a price on it.
AsaNkh (countless) and agam (unfathomable) echo the counting language of Japji. The virtuous and the learned (gunee, gi-aanee) give it their full attention, yet they cannot price it. That is wonder, a way of praising. Think of trying to count the grains of sand on a beach: you stop because there is always more.
What is something so big or so beautiful that words can only point at it?
