Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
If You were somewhere far away from me, what would being free even mean?
The One has become many forms and is inside everything. How could I be fooled now?
A bold, loving argument with the One. Ja-o tumH mo ka-o door karat ha-o ta-o tum mukat bataavhu: if You keep me far away from You, then tell me, what is mukat, being set free?
His answer is the idea of Ik Onkar: there is One. Ayk anayk ho-ay rahi-o sagal meh: the One has become the many and fills everything. Think of the ocean and its waves. Each wave has its own shape, but all of it is water.
If the One is in everything, we were never truly apart. So there is nothing to be freed from. Ab kaisay bharmaavahu: how could I be fooled now?
If the One is in everything, where would you have to go to find it?
