Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Sandalwood has a sweet smell, and its fragrance spreads far and wide.
The way the One's humble people live is fine and high. They spread the songs of the One's praise all through the world.
A good life spreads like the scent of sandalwood, reaching far beyond where it started.
Chandan ganDh suganDh hai means sandalwood has a lovely scent. It drifts far past the tree. Think of fresh bread baking. You can smell it from down the street.
Har jan karnee ootam hai: the way the One's people live is fine and good. Their goodness spreads outward the same way. Har keerat jag bisthaar: they spread the praise of the One through the world. Keerat means songs of praise. Like a scent on the wind, it travels on its own.
Whose kindness has reached you even from far away?
