ਅਨਹਦੁ ਵਾਜੈ ਭ੍ਰਮੁ ਭਉ ਭਾਜੈ ॥
anhad vaajai bharam bha-o bhaajai.
When the unstruck sound current resounds, doubt and fear run away.
ਸਗਲ ਬਿਆਪਿ ਰਹਿਆ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਛਾਜੈ ॥
sagal bi-aap rahi-aa parabh chhaajai.
God is all-pervading, giving shade to all.
ਸਭ ਤੇਰੀ ਤੂ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਜਾਤਾ ਦਰਿ ਸੋਹੈ ਗੁਣ ਗਾਇਦਾ ॥੧੦॥
sabh tayree too gurmukh jaataa dar sohai gun gaa-idaa. ||10||
All belong to You; to the Gurmukhs, You are known. Singing Your Praises, they look beautiful in Your Court. ||10||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When that inner music sounds, doubt and fear pack up and run away.
The One spreads over everyone like cool shade over a hot field.
Everything belongs to the One, and those who sing with love shine beautifully in that presence.
Where wonder fills you, fear cannot stay.
'Bharam bha-o bhaajai': when the unstruck music is heard, doubt and fear flee. The One shelters all like shade, and is 'known to the Gurmukh', the one who faces the Guru.
A Question to Sit With
When has wonder or awe made a fear feel smaller?
