ਕੀਮਤਿ ਪਾਈ ਪਾਵਣਹਾਰੈ ॥
keemat paa-ee paavanhaarai.
The Appraiser appraises its value.
ਵੇਪਰਵਾਹ ਪੂਰੇ ਭੰਡਾਰੈ ॥
vayparvaah pooray bhandaarai.
The Independent Lord is overflowing with His treasures.
ਸਰਬ ਕਲਾ ਲੇ ਆਪੇ ਰਹਿਆ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਕਿਸੈ ਬੁਝਾਇਦਾ ॥੫॥
sarab kalaa lay aapay rahi-aa gurmukh kisai bujhaa-idaa. ||5||
He holds all powers, He is all-pervading; how few are those who, as Gurmukh, understand this. ||5||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One alone knows the true worth of things.
The One depends on no one, and its storehouse of gifts is always overflowing.
The One holds every power and fills everything, though only a rare heart, turned toward the Guru, understands this.
The One's storehouse never runs low.
'Vayparvaah pooray bhandaarai': the carefree One has an overflowing treasury. It holds all powers ('sarab kalaa'), yet this is grasped only by the rare Gurmukh.
