Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I fly and soar and climb up into the sky
by Your strength, O my all-powerful Master.
In the water, on the land, in the mountains, on the riverbanks, I see the One —
in every place, and in every space between, O brother.
Wherever you go, the One is already there.
Every height you reach comes from the One's strength, and the One is in every place you look.
Oodaan ood charhaan asmaan: I fly and climb to the sky, but saahib sammrith tayrai taan, by Your power, all-powerful Master. Jal thal doongar teer: water, land, mountains, riverbanks. Thaan thanantar saahib: the Master in every place and every space between.
