ਸਾਜਨ ਮੀਤ ਸਖਾ ਹਰਿ ਮੇਰੈ ਗੁਨ ਗੋੁਪਾਲ ਹਰਿ ਰਾਇਆ ॥
saajan meet sakhaa har mayrai gun gopaal har raa-i-aa.
The Lord is my Best Friend, my Buddy, my Companion. I sing the Glorious Praises of my Sovereign Lord King.
ਬਿਸਰਿ ਨ ਜਾਈ ਨਿਮਖ ਹਿਰਦੈ ਤੇ ਪੂਰੈ ਗੁਰੂ ਮਿਲਾਇਆ ॥੧॥
bisar na jaa-ee nimakh hirdai tay poorai guroo milaa-i-aa. ||1||
I shall not forget Him in my heart, even for an instant; I have met with the Perfect Guru. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One is my best friend, my buddy, my closest companion — I sing of the One with all my heart.
I will not let the One slip from my heart even for a blink, now that the perfect Guru has brought us together.
The One can be as close as your very best friend.
The One, called by the warmest human names: saajan, meet, sakhaa — best friend, buddy, companion. Here is the closeness at Saarang's heart: pure friendship. bisar na jaa-ee nimakh: not forgetting even for a nimakh, a blink, because the poorai guroo, the perfect Guru, has milaa-i-aa, brought the two together. Belonging is the note.
A Question to Sit With
Who is a friend who feels so close it is like they are always with you?
