he sings the Kirtan of the Lord's Praises in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy.
ਆਪਣਾ ਨਾਮੁ ਦੇਹਿ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਮ ਸੁਣਿ ਬੇਨੰਤੀ ਖਾਲਕਾ ॥੧੧॥
aapnaa naam deh parabh pareetam sun baynantee khaalkaa. ||11||
Please bless me with Your Name, O my Beloved Lord God; please listen to my prayer, O Creator. ||11||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Sickness, sorrow, and pain lose their sting for such a heart.
It sings the One's praises in the Sangat.
Give me Your Naam too, dear One, and please hear this small prayer of mine, O Maker.
A song shared in the Sangat can carry a heart through hard days.
The Naam as medicine: singing in the Sangat keeps the heart well through 'rog sog dookh' (illness, sorrow, pain). Then comes a simple, tender request: give me Your Naam.
