Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
At the crossing, a voice calls out kindly: come, travelers, it is time to cross to the other shore.
And I have watched people cross safely, carried by the strong boat of the True Guru.
The True Guru's boat carries travelers safely across.
At the ferry, the paatnee, the ferryman, calls the travelers: vanjahu Dharuk vilaarh, hurry and cross over. Dith mai — I have seen them — others safely paar pavand-rhay, reaching the far shore, satgur bohith chaarh, aboard the boat of the True Guru. The crossing — including the final one — is pictured as safe passage on a sturdy boat, never as a plunge into fear.
When something feels like a big step to cross, what helps you feel carried and safe?
