Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Whoever bathes in the Name comes out clean, and stays clean — the freshness does not wear off.
Without it, the heart clouds over again and again, wandering from thing to thing and losing what makes it shine.
Bathing in the Name makes the heart clean, and it stays clean.
Har naam naavai so-ee jan nirmal — whoever bathes in the Name becomes spotless. This is a bath on the inside. Fir mailaa mool na ho-ee — that person does not get dirty again.
The dirt here is a cloudiness in the heart. It is not about ritual or who is "pure." Doojai bharam pat kho-ee — the heart that wanders in two-ness, split between many things, loses its pat, its honor and its shine.
Think of cleaning a window. Suddenly you can see the whole garden clearly. The Name keeps the window of the heart clear like that.
What do you return to that helps you feel fresh and clear again?
