ਜੋ ਪਿਰੁ ਕਰੈ ਸੁ ਧਨ ਤਤੁ ਮਾਨੈ ॥
jo pir karai so Dhan tat maanai.
Whatever the husband does, the bride willingly accepts.
ਪਿਰੁ ਧਨਹਿ ਸੀਗਾਰਿ ਰਖੈ ਸੰਗਾਨੈ ॥
pir dhaneh seegaar rakhai sangaanai.
The husband adorns his bride, and keeps her with himself.
ਮਿਲਿ ਏਕਤ੍ਰ ਵਸਹਿ ਦਿਨੁ ਰਾਤੀ ਪ੍ਰਿਉ ਦੇ ਧਨਹਿ ਦਿਲਾਸਾ ਹੇ ॥੨॥
mil ayktar vaseh din raatee pari-o day dhaneh dilaasaa hay. ||2||
Joining together, they live in harmony day and night; the husband comforts his wife. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whatever the living spark chooses, the body happily goes along with it.
The two stay close, day and night, and the spark keeps the body cared for and comforted.
For now, body and spark keep each other close and comforted.
jo pir karai so dhan tat maanai — a picture of body and soul in harmony, living together in comfort (dilaasaa). Before any word about letting go comes this: how good and close the companionship of living is.
A Question to Sit With
What does it feel like to be cared for?
