The happy soul bride has found the wealth of the Lord; her consciousness does not waver.
ਸੰਤ ਸੰਜੋਗੀ ਨਾਨਕਾ ਗ੍ਰਿਹਿ ਪ੍ਰਗਟੇ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਮੀਤ ॥੧॥
sant sanjogee naankaa garihi pargatay parabh meet. ||1||
Joining together with the Saints, O Nanak, God, my Friend, has revealed Himself in my home. ||1||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

The happy soul-bride has found the wealth of the One; her mind does not waver.

Nanak says: by meeting the saints, the One, my Friend, has appeared in my home.

The wealth of the One keeps your heart from wobbling.
The deeper layer

Sohaaganee — the happy soul-bride, united with her Beloved. Dolat naahee cheet — the mind no longer wobbles, steadied by the true wealth (har dhan). Garihi pargatay — appearing "in the home," within, once more.

A Question to Sit With

What gives you a steadiness that does not shake when things change?
