Twenty-four hours a day, I meditate on the Lord, Har, Har.
ਨਾਨਕ ਸੰਤ ਤੇਰੈ ਰੰਗਿ ਰਾਤੇ ਤੂ ਸਮਰਥੁ ਵਡਾਲਕਾ ॥੧੬॥੪॥੧੩॥
naanak sant tayrai rang raatay too samrath vadaalkaa. ||16||4||13||
O Nanak, the Saints are imbued with Your Love; You are the great and all-powerful Lord. ||16||4||13||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
With every breath, I do not let the One slip from mind.
All day and all night, I turn my heart toward the One.
Nanak says, Your saints are dyed through with Your love, and You are the great and all-powerful One.
Remembering does not have to be loud; it can be as steady as breathing.
Remembrance with every breath ('saas saas'), and hearts soaked in love. Everything comes to rest in the strength and closeness of the One.
A Question to Sit With
What is something good you would like to keep in mind as steadily as your own breath?
