Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The True One is the maker of the whole universe.
It set the world spinning and watches over it with loving attention.
It made all that is and delights in gazing on it — real, free, and needing nothing from anyone.
The One who made everything watches over it with loving care.
Saachay saahib sirjanhaaray — the True Master, the Creator. The One set up the world and veechaaray (contemplates) it, kar kar vaykhai — makes and watches — saachaa vayparvaahaa, True and needing nothing in return.
A Question to Sit With
