ਬੋਲਹੁ ਸਾਚੁ ਪਛਾਣਹੁ ਅੰਦਰਿ ॥
bolhu saach pachhaanhu andar.
So speak the Truth, and realize the Lord deep within.
ਦੂਰਿ ਨਾਹੀ ਦੇਖਹੁ ਕਰਿ ਨੰਦਰਿ ॥
door naahee daykhhu kar nandar.
He is not far away; look, and see Him.
ਬਿਘਨੁ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਤਰੁ ਤਾਰੀ ਇਉ ਭਵਜਲੁ ਪਾਰਿ ਲੰਘਾਈ ਹੇ ॥੧੨॥
bighan naahee gurmukh tar taaree i-o bhavjal paar langhaa-ee hay. ||12||
No obstacles shall block your way; become Gurmukh, and cross over to the other side. This is the way to cross over the terrifying world-ocean. ||12||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Let me speak what is true and find the One deep inside me.
You are not far away at all; I just have to look with open eyes and see.
With that seeing, nothing can block my way, and I cross gently to the peaceful shore.
The One is not far away; open eyes are all it takes to see.
The One is within and close by, and seeing dissolves every obstacle. As a gurmukh, one crosses gently to the other shore.
A Question to Sit With
