ਦਾਸ ਅਨਿੰਨ ਮੇਰੋ ਨਿਜ ਰੂਪ ॥
daas aninn mayro nij roop.
Says God: my slave is devoted only to me; he is in my very image.
ਦਰਸਨ ਨਿਮਖ ਤਾਪ ਤ੍ਰਈ ਮੋਚਨ ਪਰਸਤ ਮੁਕਤਿ ਕਰਤ ਗ੍ਰਿਹ ਕੂਪ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
darsan nimakh taap tar-ee mochan parsat mukat karat garih koop. ||1|| rahaa-o.
The sight of him, even for an instant, cures the three fevers; his touch brings liberation from the deep dark pit of household affairs. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The one who loves me with a whole heart looks just like me, the One says.
One glance at them soothes every fever, and being near them loosens the knots of everyday worry.
A heart full of love carries the face of the One.
The voice here is the One's own. Its devotee bears its very image (nij roop), and simply being near such a heart soothes every fever and loosens the knots of daily worry. The deep pit of household affairs is the ordinary tangle of everyday cares.
A Question to Sit With
Who do you know whose presence makes you feel calmer just by being near?
