Sing, and let the restless coming and going come to rest.
The Arc
A brief Du-Padas (two-stanza) shabad, opening its Second House. The rahau (Pauri0) gives the whole teaching — sing, and find peace as the restless wandering settles — and the two short couplets add an inner lighting-up (Pauri1) and the crossing made in good company (Pauri2). Small in size, complete in message.
Key Vocabulary
Du-Padas — a two-stanza form. Aavaa ga-on mitai — the coming and going ends. Pargaas — an inner lighting-up. Santsangat — the company of the good.
Themes and Cross-Connections
Even in miniature, the shabad carries the project's core notes: song as a settling force, and the crossing never made alone.
For Raag Raamkalee
The form suits Raamkalee's singable brightness — a short, warm invitation to sing.
