Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who are dyed in the One's love, the way color soaks into cloth, find peace in the company of the One.
Only the one to whom this sweet taste comes understands it.
Seeing it, and seeing it again, their minds are filled with wonder.
Only the one who tastes the One's love knows it, and that taste fills the mind with wonder.
"Raataa rang" (dyed in the color) is the recurring Gurbani image of the soul taking on the divine hue. "Jis ras aa-i-aa so-ee jaanai" — only the one to whom the essence comes knows it — says spiritual taste cannot be had secondhand. "Hairaanai" is wonderstruck, the Waheguru-state of awe.
What is a feeling that words can never quite capture, that you would have to feel to understand?
