Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one in whom the One shines inside
is not touched by pain and sorrow.
That person holds rubies and jewels in their lap.
That humble one crosses over, and carries the whole family along.
Your inner light can lift up everyone around you.
Jaa kai antar pargati-o aap — the One's radiance dawns within, so naahee dookh santaap — pain and sorrow lose their hold. Laal ratan tis paalai pari-aa — jewels held in the lap; and sagal kutamb oh jan lai tari-aa — the whole family is lifted along. Goodness is contagious.
