Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The devotees who move with Your will are dear to You. You Yourself forgive them and bring them close.
Living in Your will, I have found lasting peace. The Guru has put out the fire of wanting.
Move with the One's will, and the Guru cools the fire of always wanting more.
Tayrai bhaanai bhagat jay tuDh bhaavai means the devotees who move with Your Will are dear to You. Aapay bakhas milaa-ee means You Yourself forgive them and bring them close.
Tayrai bhaanai sadaa sukh paa-i-aa means by living in Your Will, I found lasting peace.
Then: gur tarisnaa agan bujhaa-ee. Tarisnaa agan means the fire of wanting, the thirst that always needs more. The Gurbani often uses this picture for what keeps people restless. The Guru puts it out. It is not stamped out by force. It cools, like a hot pan cooling once you take it off the stove. When the mind rests in the One, the wanting just loses its heat.
What is something you keep wanting more of — and what might quiet that wanting?
