Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

When your heart is rooted in what is real, you can be content with whatever comes.

The Word makes your life beautiful.

Those who are true here are welcomed lovingly in the great Presence, and grace makes them shine.

Rooted in what is real, you can be at peace with whatever comes.
The deeper layer

Sach lagay tin sabh kichh bhaavai — the one attached to Truth is pleased with everything. This is sahaj, the natural ease of a soul that has stopped fighting what is. Aithai... say dar saachay — true here, true there: no split between this life and the beyond.

A Question to Sit With

What helps you feel okay even when things do not go your way?
