Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The perfect Guru is found by great good fortune.
Let go of craving, anger and greed from your mind.
In kindness, the Guru's feet come to live within you.
Nanak says: this is my prayer to the True One.
Meeting the perfect Guru is great good fortune; let craving, anger and greed go, and the Guru's feet settle in your heart.
Gur pooraa paa-ee-ai vad bhaag: the perfect Guru is found by great good fortune. Kaam krodh lobh are craving, anger and greed, heavy things to set down so there is room in the heart. Kar kirpaa gur charan nivaas: by grace, the Guru's feet come to dwell within. Naanak kee parabh sach ardaas: Nanak's prayer to the True One.
What is one heavy feeling you would like to gently set down?
