O my mother, the Master has blessed me with the jewel.

hi-aa-o mahijaa thandh-rhaa mukhahu sach alaa-ay. ||2||
My heart is cooled and soothed, chanting the True Name with my mouth. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O my mother, the One has blessed me with a shining jewel.
My heart is cooled and soothed as I speak the True Name.
The right words, held with love, can cool a burning heart.
A Dakhanay shalok. The 'jewel' is the Name; speaking it (simran) cools the fever of a restless heart. Chanting is framed warmly, as comfort.
