ਸਚਾ ਅਮਰੁ ਸਬਦਿ ਸੁਹਾਇਆ ॥
sachaa amar sabad suhaa-i-aa.
True is His Will, beauteous and pleasing through the Word of the Shabad.
ਪੰਚ ਸਬਦ ਮਿਲਿ ਵਾਜਾ ਵਾਇਆ ॥
panch sabad mil vaajaa vaa-i-aa.
The Panch Shabad, the five primal sounds, vibrate and resonate.
ਸਦਾ ਕਾਰਜੁ ਸਚਿ ਨਾਮਿ ਸੁਹੇਲਾ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਬਦੈ ਕਾਰਜੁ ਕੇਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੭॥
sadaa kaaraj sach naam suhaylaa bin sabdai kaaraj kayhaa hay. ||7||
Through the True Name, one's actions are forever embellished. Without the Shabad, what can anyone do? ||7||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The True Will is beautiful, and the Word helps you see that beauty.
A quiet inner music plays for the heart that listens, and every deed done with the Name in it turns lovely.
When the Name is in what you do, even ordinary deeds turn beautiful.
The Will, bhaana, is seen as beautiful. The Panch Shabad, the five sounds, name an inner music of the awakened heart, and actions gain grace from the Name.
