Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
A heart tuned to the One shines clear; without that, it can gather a film of dust.
But here is the hope: touch the Guru, the stone that turns metal to gold, and the dull becomes bright again. The color of that true jewel is worth more than anyone can measure.
Anyone can shine again.
Mayray parabh bhaavan say oojlay — those who please my God are bright and clean. Others get covered in grime. Mailaa oojal taa thee-ai paaras sang bheejai — the dirty become clean when they touch the paaras. The paaras is the magic stone from old stories that turns plain metal into gold. Here, the Guru is that stone.
So no one is ever written off. Think of an old, dull spoon polished until it shines. Vannee saachay laal kee kin keemat keejai — who could ever put a price on the color of that true jewel?
When has something dull in your life turned bright again?
