Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Stay close to the truly good person, who shares kindness for everyone's sake.
Near them, your heart opens and blossoms, like a lotus reaching water.
This one says: stay close to truly good people, and your heart opens like a flower.
Santan sant saadh mil rahee-ai — "stay with the saint of saints." A saint is a truly good person. This one "sings the good for the benefit of all," sharing kindness for everyone's sake.
"Meeting them, the mind blossoms, like the lotus given water." Think of a plant on a windowsill that has gone a bit droopy. You water it, and by evening its leaves lift up again. Near a good, generous person, your heart does the same. This joy runs all through the raag.
Who helps your heart open up and blossom when you're near them?
