ਚਰਣ ਕਮਲ ਸਰਣਾਈ ਆਇਆ ॥
charan kamal sarnaa-ee aa-i-aa.
I have come to the Sanctuary of His lotus feet.
ਸਾਧਸੰਗਿ ਹੈ ਹਰਿ ਜਸੁ ਗਾਇਆ ॥
saaDhsang hai har jas gaa-i-aa.
In the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy, I sing the Praises of the Lord.
ਜਨਮ ਮਰਣ ਸਭਿ ਦੂਖ ਨਿਵਾਰੇ ਜਪਿ ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਭਉ ਨਹੀ ਕਾਲ ਕਾ ॥੩॥
janam maran sabh dookh nivaaray jap har har bha-o nahee kaal kaa. ||3||
I have erased all the pains of birth and death; meditating on the Lord, Har, Har, I have no fear of death. ||3||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have come to rest in the shelter of the One.
In the Sangat I sing the praises of the One.
The pains of being born and dying are all cleared away; remembering the One, I have no fear of death.
Fear of endings loosens its grip when you feel held.
Sangat and simran quiet 'janam maran', the pains of birth and death. 'Bha-o nahee kaal kaa': the fear of death is gone, through shelter and song.
SaaDhsang is the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One.
