ਤੂ ਅੰਤਰਜਾਮੀ ਜੀਅ ਸਭਿ ਤੇਰੇ ॥
too antarjaamee jee-a sabh tayray.
You are the Inner-knower, the Searcher of hearts. All beings belong to You.
ਤੂ ਦਾਤਾ ਹਮ ਸੇਵਕ ਤੇਰੇ ॥
too daataa ham sayvak tayray.
You are the Great Giver; I am Your slave.
ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਨਾਮੁ ਕ੍ਰਿਪਾ ਕਰਿ ਦੀਜੈ ਗੁਰਿ ਗਿਆਨ ਰਤਨੁ ਦੀਪਾਇਆ ॥੬॥
amrit naam kirpaa kar deejai gur gi-aan ratan deepaa-i-aa. ||6||
Please be merciful and bless me with Your Ambrosial Naam, and the jewel, the lamp of the Guru's spiritual wisdom. ||6||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You know me from the inside; every living being is Yours.
You are the Great Giver, and I am glad to serve.
Be kind and pour the nectar of Your Naam into me, and let the Guru light the jewel-lamp of understanding in my heart.
The One already knows you completely and still loves to give.
Antarjaamee is the inner-knower, the One who reads the heart. The asking here is devotion: to be filled with amrit naam (the Naam like nectar) and lit by gian ratan (the jewel-lamp of wisdom). To be fully known and still cherished is the ground of trust.
A Question to Sit With
What would you ask for if you knew you were fully understood?
