Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
If my heart pleases You, then I get to see You, and that is all I want.
With love, I sing about how good and beautiful You are.
By Your own kindness, You have become dear to me, sweet as honey on my tongue.
Love makes the thought of the One taste sweet.
'Darsan' is the blessed sight of the One. Loving devotion (bhaa-ay bhagat) is what makes the thought of the One taste sweet.
