ਜਿਸੁ ਨਾਮੈ ਕਉ ਤਰਸਹਿ ਬਹੁ ਦੇਵਾ ॥
jis naamai ka-o tarseh baho dayvaa.
So many gods yearn for the Naam, the Name of the Lord.
ਸਗਲ ਭਗਤ ਜਾ ਕੀ ਕਰਦੇ ਸੇਵਾ ॥
sagal bhagat jaa kee karday sayvaa.
All the devotees serve Him.
ਅਨਾਥਾ ਨਾਥੁ ਦੀਨ ਦੁਖ ਭੰਜਨੁ ਸੋ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੇ ਤੇ ਪਾਇਣਾ ॥੩॥
anaathaa naath deen dukh bhanjan so gur pooray tay paa-inaa. ||3||
He is the Master of the masterless, the Destroyer of the pains of the poor. His Name is obtained from the Perfect Guru. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Even the powers people call gods long for this Name.
All who love the One turn toward it in service.
The One is a home for those who have no home, and eases the ache of those the world overlooks — and this Naam is found through the Perfect Guru.
The One is a home for those who have none, and eases the ache of the overlooked.
Even the many devtas — the powers people call gods — yearn for the Name, and all devotees serve the One. The One is anaath naath, the shelter of the shelterless, and deen dukh bhanjan, the easer of the humble's pain. This Name is found through the Perfect Guru. The gods and the devotees share the same longing.
