You are the true King, present and shining in everything, everywhere.
Let me have the gift of serving the saints. Nanak says, I give my whole self to the One, always.
The highest wish is to serve the saints.
Tum hee naa-ik... poor rahay bhagvaanaa — You are the true King, fully present in everything, everywhere. Against that vastness comes a humble request: daan sant sayvaa, the gift of serving the saints. The highest wish is to serve.
