jaa kai antar har har su-aad.
One who enjoys the taste of the Lord, Har, Har, deep within himself,

O Nanak, his wondrous state cannot be described. ||4||9||20||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One has no edge and no ending.
It hides itself, and it shows itself as the whole wide world.
Nanak says: the one who tastes the sweetness of the One deep inside
lives in a wonder that no words can describe.
The deepest wonder is bigger than any words for it.
Aapay gupat aapay paasaar: the One is both the hidden and the whole visible spread. Where words stop, bismaad, wonder, begins, the same awe that lives inside the word Waheguru.
