Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Now and then, here and there, it is You, only You.
By Your grace, I am at peace always.
When one thing stays constant, your heart can finally rest.
Ab-tab-jab-kab — now, then, here, there — names every time and place at once: the One is the single constant through all of them. And the peace is received, not earned: 'by Your grace' (tu-a parsaad).
