ਘਰੈ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਕੋ ਘਰੁ ਪਾਏ ॥
gharai andar ko ghar paa-ay.
Deep within the home of the self, one finds the home of the Lord.
ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਸਬਦੇ ਸਹਜਿ ਸੁਭਾਏ ॥
gur kai sabday sahj subhaa-ay.
Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, one easily, intuitively finds it.
ਓਥੈ ਸੋਗੁ ਵਿਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਵਿਆਪੈ ਸਹਜੇ ਸਹਜਿ ਸਮਾਇਆ ॥੧੦॥
othai sog vijog na vi-aapai sehjay sahj samaa-i-aa. ||10||
There, one is not afflicted with sorrow or separation; merge into the Celestial Lord with intuitive ease. ||10||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Deep inside your own home — your own heart — you find the home of the One. Through the word you come to it easily and naturally.
There, no sorrow or feeling of being apart can reach you; you melt with quiet ease into the heavenly One.
The home you long for and the home you live in turn out to be one.
The home of the self (nij ghar) holds the home of the One: two homes that turn out to be one. There, no vichhoraa (sense of separation) can reach — the healing of the very ache Maaroo often names. Merging comes sahaj, with intuitive ease.
