Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one whom the Guru, the One, blesses with peace
does not suffer pain again.
The One cares for everyone.
Nanak says: I am colored through with the love of the Keeper of the world.
When the Guru blesses you with peace, pain no longer clings.
Jaa ka-o gur har dee-ay sookhaa — given peace, bahur na laageh dookhaa — pain no longer takes hold. Sarab partipaal — the One cherishes all; raata-o rang gopaal — dyed through in the love of the One, like cloth dipped in a dyer's vat until the color goes all the way through.
