Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
There is only One. And the One is found by the True Guru's grace — a gift that is always here, waiting for an open heart.
"How can I know what makes You glad?" my heart wonders.
There's such a deep thirst in me just to see You and be near.
This opens the Guru Arjan (Mehl 5) block. The rahao is a humble, searching question: "how can I know what pleases You? Within my mind is such a great thirst for the sight of You." It's the honest longing of someone who wants to please the one they love but isn't sure how — a feeling every child knows. For a child: sometimes we deeply want to please someone we love, and long just to be near them.
Who do you most want to make glad — and how do you show your love to them?
