Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O Treasure of goodness, no one has found Your end.
Through the true Word, I melt into You.
You Yourself made the coming and going of birth and death.
Your devotees are the ones who keep their mind on You, the True One.
The One is a treasure of goodness with no bottom, and the true Word lets you melt into it.
Gun niDhaan means treasure of goodness. Ant na paa-i-aa means no one has found its end. Think of a well so deep that no rope ever reaches the bottom.
Saach sabad is the true Word, the Guru's teaching. Through it: tujh maahi samaa-i-aa, I melt into You. It is like a raindrop falling into the ocean and becoming part of it.
Aavaa ga-on means coming and going, the cycle of being born and moving on. It is spoken of gently here, as something the One set in motion. And the devotees are those who sach chit laa-i-aa, who keep their mind on the True One.
What does it feel like to be part of something much larger than yourself?
