Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
My Love, the glory of seeing You is endless and never wasted. Near the saints, we become like that too.
Saying Your Naam, we cross the wide, rough sea of the world.
They remember the One — Raam, Raam, Raam — like beads on a string.
Their minds turn toward the One in the Sangat.
Nanak says: the Beloved has become so sweet to them.
Near the saints, you become like them, and the Beloved grows sweet.
Aisee tayray darsan kee sobh: such is the glory of seeing You. Taisay hee sang sant banay: by staying near the saints, we become like them. Bhav utaar naam bhanay: saying the Naam, we cross the world-ocean. Ram raam raam maal is remembering the One like beads on a maalaa, a string of prayer beads, one after another. Man fayrtay har sang sangee-aa: their minds turn toward the One in the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One. Pari-o preetam thee-aa: the Beloved has become sweet.
Who do you want to become more like, just by spending time with them?
