United, Never Parted

ਜਿਨ ਆਪੇ ਮੇਲਿ ਵਿਛੋੜਹਿ ਨਾਹੀ ॥

Those whom You unite, Lord, are never separated again.
ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਸਬਦਿ ਸਦਾ ਸਾਲਾਹੀ ॥
gur kai sabad sadaa saalaahee.
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, they praise You forever.
ਸਭਨਾ ਸਿਰਿ ਤੂ ਏਕੋ ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਸਬਦੇ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਲਾਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੧੩॥
sabhnaa sir too ayko saahib sabday naam salaahaa hay. ||13||
You are the One Lord and Master over all. Through the Shabad, the Naam is praised. ||13||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Those You draw together are never torn apart again.

Through the Word they praise You always.

You are the one Beloved over all, and through the Word the Name is sung.

A union with the One is a belonging nothing can undo.
The deeper layer

Jin aapay mayl vichhorheh naahee — those the One unites are never separated. A comforting promise about the deepest belonging: a union with the One that no loss can undo. Sabhnaa sir too ayko saahib — the single Beloved over all.

A Question to Sit With

Who are the people you feel connected to no matter what?
