Verse 14 of 16

Never to Be Parted Again

ਜੁਗਿ ਜੁਗਿ ਸਾਚਾ ਏਕੋ ਦਾਤਾ ॥
jug jug saachaa ayko daataa.
In each and every age, the True Lord is the one and only Giver.
ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੁ ਪਛਾਤਾ ॥
poorai bhaag gur sabad pachhaataa.
Through perfect destiny, one realizes the Word of the Guru's Shabad.
ਸਬਦਿ ਮਿਲੇ ਸੇ ਵਿਛੁੜੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਨਦਰੀ ਸਹਜਿ ਮਿਲਾਈ ਹੇ ॥੧੪॥
sabad milay say vichhurhay naahee nadree sahj milaa-ee hay. ||14||
Those who are immersed in the Shabad are not separated again. By His Grace, they are intuitively immersed in the Lord. ||14||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

In every age there is one Giver, and only one.

When the moment is ripe, a heart wakes to the living Word.

And once soaked in that Word, it is never parted again; grace folds it, easily, into the One.

A heart soaked in the Word is never parted from the One again.
The deeper layer

This is deep comfort in the mortality-raag: a heart soaked in the Word is never separated again. Reunion is not fragile but final.

A Question to Sit With

What is a bond in your life that feels like it will never break?
