ਬਿਨੁ ਮਿਲਬੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਸੰਤੋਖਾ ਪੇਖਿ ਦਰਸਨੁ ਨਾਨਕੁ ਜੀਜੈ ॥੨॥੧॥
bin milbay naahee santokhaa paykh darsan naanak jeejai. ||2||1||
Unless I meet my Lord, I am not satisfied. Nanak lives, gazing upon the Blessed Vision of His Darshan. ||2||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Until I meet my Lord, nothing can make me content.
Nanak says: I live by gazing on the blessed sight of You.
Some longings are filled only by meeting, never by a substitute.
Only meeting the Beloved brings contentment, and seeing the Beloved is life itself.
Bin milbay naahee santokhaa: without meeting, there is no contentment. Paykh darsan ... jeejai: living by the sight (darshan) of the Beloved. Longing is answered by presence; the seeing itself is life.
