ਐਸਾ ਲਾਲਾ ਮੇਰੇ ਲਾਲ ਕੋ ਸੁਣਿ ਖਸਮ ਹਮਾਰੇ ॥
aisaa laalaa mayray laal ko sun khasam hamaaray.
I am such a slave of Yours, O my Beloved Lord and Master.
ਜਿਉ ਫੁਰਮਾਵਹਿ ਤਿਉ ਚਲਾ ਸਚੁ ਲਾਲ ਪਿਆਰੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
ji-o furmaaveh ti-o chalaa sach laal pi-aaray. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I walk in harmony with Your Command, O my True, Sweet Beloved. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Listen, my Master: I am Your own, my Beloved, Yours completely.
As You ask, so I walk, my true and dear Beloved.
Walk gladly the way the Beloved asks.
The rahao. Laalaa names the one devoted to the laal, the Beloved; it means loving belonging. Jio furmaaveh tio chalaa is walking in harmony with the hukam, the flow of existence, as an act of love.
