Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Creator comes to live in the mind of the one the Creator blesses.
Nanak says: meditate on the Naam forever, the Naam the True Guru has shown you.
The Creator comes to live in your heart as a gift, and the Naam the Guru shows you is yours to hold always.
Aapay kartaa jis no dayvai: the Creator Himself gives the gift. Tis vasai man aa-ee: in that one's mind, the Creator comes to dwell. Grace is a gift that is always here; you open to it. Guru Amar Das, signing as Nanak, closes with naanak naam Dhi-aa-ay sadaa too: meditate on the Naam always. Satgur dee-aa dikhaa-ee: the True Guru has shown it to you. Hold it close every day.
