Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Resting in the flow, even hunger feels alright; I stop splitting the world into sorrow and joy.
Whatever comes from the One, I take it to my forehead and accept it.
When you rest in the One's will, the ups and downs of life stop throwing you around.
Aagi-aa meh bhookh so-ee kar sookhaa — living within the One's will, even hunger feels like comfort. Sog harakh nahee jaani-o — I stop dividing life into sorrow and joy. It means that even hard days feel bearable when the heart is steady.
Hukam means the will or command of the One. Jo jo hukam bha-i-o saahib kaa — whatever the Master's will is. So maathai lay maani-o — I bow my forehead and accept it.
This is not about giving up. It is about trust. Think of a sailor on a boat. The wind changes, and a good sailor does not shout at it. They shift the sail and keep going. Accepting the One's will works like that. It keeps you steady, whatever the weather.
What helps you stay steady through both good days and hard ones?
