Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are far beyond anything I can measure: endless, unbreakable, and forever.
Yet through the Guru's word, when I knock at Your door, it opens onto a treasure of freedom. Nanak says: once that bond is made, dealing only in what is true, it never comes undone.
A surprise at the end: the One is agam and agochar, out of reach and beyond seeing. The One is endless and never wears out.
Yet gur sabdee dar jo-ee-ai: through the Guru's word, we seek at the One's door. And there we find muktay bhandaaraa, a storehouse of freedom. It is like a mountain too big to climb, with a door at its foot that simply opens.
Nanak mayl na chook-ee: the mayl, the joining, never breaks for the one who trades in Truth.
When has something huge and far-off suddenly felt close and reachable?
