Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Singing the wonders of the One, I feel washed all the way clean — and this time it stays.
My whole attention rests on the One like a thread tied to something steady, and in that stillness I met the vast, endless Being face to face.
Singing the One's praise washes the heart clean, and it stays clean.
Nirmal means spotless. Oojal means bright and shining. Singing the One's goodness makes the heart both. And the verse says it will "never be dirtied again." This clean feeling is settled, not fragile.
Doree raachee means a thread tied on. The thread is my attention, tied to the One's lotus feet, the safe place to rest. Think of a kite: its string keeps it steady while it flies high. Through that steady, loving attention, bhayti-o purakh apaaro — I met the endless, boundless Being.
What is something you can give your full, steady attention to — and how does it feel afterward?
