Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Sometimes I forget all the good You have given and I lose my way a little. What should I do then?
This: remember that You are endlessly kind, watching over everyone. Day and night the gifts keep coming, and You take care of us all.
Even when you forget, the Giver keeps giving.
Tay gun visar ga-ay — I have forgotten Your goodness. The speaker feels foolish and lost, mai ba-uraa, and asks what to do now.
The answer is to look up. Too daataa da-i-aal sabhai sir — You are the kind Giver, over everyone. Ahinis daat samaar karay — day and night, You give and take care of all.
Think of a parent who makes breakfast every morning, even on the days nobody says thank you. The care keeps coming, whether anyone remembers it or not.
What helps you find your way back when you feel a little lost?
