ਕਿਲਵਿਖ ਕਾਟਣ ਭੈ ਹਰਣ ਸੁਖ ਸਾਗਰ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਇ ॥
kilvikh kaatan bhai haran sukh saagar har raa-ay.
He is the Eradicator of sins, the Destroyer of fear, the Ocean of peace, the Sovereign Lord King.
ਦੀਨ ਦਇਆਲ ਦੁਖ ਭੰਜਨੋ ਨਾਨਕ ਨੀਤ ਧਿਆਇ ॥੨॥
deen da-i-aal dukh bhanjno naanak neet Dhi-aa-ay. ||2||
Merciful to the meek, the Destroyer of pain: O Nanak, always meditate on Him. ||2||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One takes away wrongs, takes away fear, and is an ocean of peace, the King of all.
Nanak says: the One is kind to the humble and takes away pain — always remember the One.
The same One who lifts your fear is worth keeping in mind every day.
The One's qualities, one after another: kilvikh kaatan (clearing old faults), bhai haran (lifting fear), sukh saagar (ocean of peace). Deen da-i-aal — kind to the humble and gentle; the tenderness that runs through the whole Ruti.
