Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
A small orphan boy who remembered the One became steady and unshaken.
A father calling out the Name in his hour of need was answered, and the fear of death was turned back.
Even a small child who remembered the One became steady.
This verse tells two old stories. Dhroo was a five-year-old boy, anaath, without anyone to protect him. He remembered the One and became amar ataaray, steady and lasting. In the old stories he became the North Star, the star that never moves in the night sky.
The second story is about Ajaamal. He called out "Naaraayan!" That is a name of God, and it was also his son's name. The verse says the call was answered, and the fear of death was turned back.
One true call to the One is always heard.
Who do you call for when you need help?
