Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When my Master heard my prayer, the One came quickly, pouring down kindness.
Nanak says: I have become just like my Husband. I am blessed with honor, glory and a good way of living.
The prayer is heard, and the One comes quickly with kindness, like the rain arriving at last.
Bin-o suni-o jab thaakur mayrai bayg aa-i-o kirpaa dhaaray: when my Master heard my prayer, the One came quickly with mercy. Bin-o means prayer, and bayg means fast. The rain we called for is here.
Then Guru Nanak says something beautiful: we grow like the One we love. Think of best friends who start laughing the same way. The gifts are pat sobhaa bhalay achaaray: honor, dignity and a good way of living. The reward is becoming a good person.
How have you started to resemble someone you love and admire?
