Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
There is an old story of a man his society counted as the very lowest of all. The divine reached out and embraced him with love, just as he was.
Then even the people who had looked down on him could only praise him. His good name spread across the whole world.
The One's love reaches first for the person the world pushes away.
Su-aan satar names someone society scorned most harshly, a man counted lowest of all. In the story, Krishna held him close: krisan laavai hayt, Krishna embraces him with love. So again Ravidas turns the ranking by birth upside down. Heaven's regard wipes out human rankings.
Think of the new kid no one sits with at lunch. Then the most loved teacher in school comes and sits right beside him. Suddenly everyone sees him differently.
Teen lok parvays: his praise spreads through the three worlds. The once-scorned name is honored everywhere.
How does it change a person to be accepted exactly as they are?
