Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Name is a jewel beyond any price, a diamond you could never buy.
The True One never fades and cannot be weighed or measured.
A tongue that speaks the True Name is made clean by it.
And the True One lives right in the home of your own self — of that there is no doubt.
The Name is the most precious thing a person can have, and it lives right inside us.
Naam ratan heeraa nirmol — the Name is a jewel, a diamond beyond any price. Nirmol means priceless: no store could ever sell it. The One behind the Name is amar atol — never dying, and too great to weigh on any scale.
When the tongue speaks the True Name, it becomes clean. Speaking it with love is like speaking with a friend you love: the words carry your whole heart.
And where is this treasure kept? Ghar dar saachaa — the True One lives in the home of your own self. You do not need to travel far to find it. It is like searching the whole house for your glasses while they sit on your head.
What treasure do you already have that you sometimes forget is there?
