Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Singing and listening, all of it comes by Your will.
Whoever understands the flow of life melts into Truth.
Remembering Your Naam again and again, I live.
Without You, there is no other place to be.
Everything, even your singing and listening, moves inside the One's will; understand that flow and you settle into Truth.
Gaavan sunan sabh tayraa bhaanaa means singing and listening all happen by Your will. Bhaanaa means will, the way the One wants things to go. Hukam boojhai so saach samaanaa: whoever understands the hukam melts into the Truth.
Hukam is the flow of life, like water flowing downhill. When you swim with the current, the river carries you. Jap jap jeeveh: remembering and remembering Your Name, I live. And tujh bin doojaa naahee thaa-o: without You, there is no other place to stand. That echoes Ik Onkar, the One Creator. Nothing is outside the One.
What is something you stopped fighting, and felt more at peace once you did?
