Imbued with the Naam, the Name of the Lord, he finds peace. He remains lovingly focused on the Naam. ||11||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one who turns toward the Guru receives the Naam, and their good name grows. In all four ages, people see them as pure and good.
Soaked in the Naam, they find peace, and they stay lovingly turned toward the Naam.
Goodness that comes from the Name does not go out of style.
chahu jug nirmal — pure across all four ages, a goodness that does not go out of date. nirmal means clean, unstained. liv laaee is loving, steady focus — the mind resting on the Name.
