Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whatever the One joins us to, that is what we are joined to.
The One acts and does and watches lovingly over all that is made.
Nanak says: You are my Perfect Giver of peace; as You bless me, I hold the Naam close.
At the close of the prayer, everything rests in the One's care.
Jit jit laaveh tit tit lagnaa — whatever You join us to, that is what we are joined to. Kar kar vaykhai apnay jachnaa — the One makes and does, and watches over all that is made.
There is deep relief here. The seeker stops trying to manage everything. Think of a little kid falling asleep in the back seat on a long drive. They do not need to know every turn. Someone they trust is driving.
Sukh-daatay means the Giver of peace. Too deh ta naam samaalee-ai — as You give, I hold on to Your Name. The Anjulee ends the way a cupped-hands prayer should, with hands open, receiving.
What would you like to set down and trust the flow of life to hold?
