Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Wherever I look, I see the One.
Without meeting the True Guru, no one is set free.
Keep the True One in your heart; this is the finest thing you can do.
All other show-off worship and empty deeds bring only ruin.
The One is everywhere you look.
jah jah daykhaa tah tah so-ee — wherever I look, there is the One.
bin satgur bhaytay mukat na ho-ee — without meeting the true Guru, no one is set free.
hirdai sach ayh karnee saar — keeping the True One in your heart is the best thing you can do. hor sabh pakhand pooj khu-aar — all other show-off worship brings ruin. Pakhand means doing religious things just for show.
Think of a phone with a beautiful case but a dead battery. It looks nice, but it can't do anything. Worship done only for show leaves us empty like that.
Where is a place you'd least expect to find something sacred, and what if it were there too?
