Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I searched all through my mind and body - how do I reach this story words cannot hold?
I found it by meeting the saints, the Guru's humble people; hearing it, my mind was glad. Now the Naam is the ground under my body and mind.
The search runs everywhere inside, and the answer turns up among the saints.
Mai man tan khoj dhandholi-aa — I searched all through my mind and body. How can I reach this story that words cannot hold? Then comes the answer. Sant janaa mil paa-i-aa — I found it by meeting the saints, the Guru's humble people.
Think of trying to learn to swim from a book. You can read every page and still not float. Then you get in the pool with a friend who swims, and it starts to make sense.
After that, the Name holds up the seeker's mind and body. The seeker is joined with purakh sujaanee, the all-knowing One.
Who are the people who help you find what you are looking for?
