ਸੇ ਜਨ ਸੁਖੀਏ ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਸਚੇ ਲਾਏ ॥
say jan sukhee-ay satgur sachay laa-ay.
Those humble beings are at peace, whom the True Guru attaches to the Truth.
ਆਪੇ ਭਾਣੇ ਆਪਿ ਮਿਲਾਏ ॥
aapay bhaanay aap milaa-ay.
He Himself, in His Will, merges them into Himself.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰਿ ਰਾਖੇ ਸੇ ਜਨ ਉਬਰੇ ਹੋਰ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹ ਖੁਆਰੀ ਹੇ ॥੧੨॥
satgur raakhay say jan ubray hor maa-i-aa moh khu-aaree hay. ||12||
Those humble beings, whom the True Guru protects, are saved. The rest are ruined through emotional attachment to Maya. ||12||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
There is a deep peace for the one the true Guru draws toward what is real.
By its own kindness, the One gathers them home.
Those it shelters are kept safe, and the tugging of passing things loses its grip on them.
You are held safe when you let yourself be gathered home.
Satgur raakhay say jan ubray — those the true Guru protects are carried across. Others are worn down by moh; for those who are sheltered, the grip of attachment loosens.
A Question to Sit With
Who or what helps you feel safely held?
