Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
A tune is called beautiful when it helps a heart fall in love with the Word.
Keep meeting with the Sangat, let love for the True One take root, and something clouded inside you washes clean.
Then even those around you are blessed, and old habits that pulled you down quietly lose their hold.
Nanak says: the one who never leaves the Guru, and gives no love to anything second, is the one who is united.
A shalok of the Third Mehl, naming Raga Kaydaaraa. A melody has no magic of its own; it is good only insofar as it kindles love for the Word and truthful living. Cleansing your own heart and lifting up your whole family go together, and union means staying with the Guru and loving the One alone.
Satsangat si-o mildo rahai — keep meeting with the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One. Love for the Word grows fastest where many voices sing it together.
What music or words help love grow inside you?
