Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The rainbird called out in the early hours before dawn, and its cry was heard at the One's door.
The order went out to the clouds: "Be kind, and let the rain fall."
I would give my whole self for those who keep the True One in their hearts.
Nanak says: through the Naam everything turns green, thinking on the Guru's Word.
A cry from the heart before dawn is heard, and through the Naam everything turns green again.
A salok of the Third Mehl. Amrit vaylai, the nectar hours before dawn, is the time of stillness and prayer. The cry is heard at the One's door and answered with a rain of kindness. Haree-aavalee: everything green and fresh, the renewal at the heart of Malaar.
What does the world feel like to you early in the morning, before the noise starts?
