Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Drinking in the sweetness of the Name, my mind is full and content, the way you feel after the best meal.
Nanak says, I found a deep, easy peace, and the Guru quieted every last bit of my thirst.
When the Name fills a person, it is like a drink that finally satisfies. The thirst that nothing else could quench is gone.
Amrit means nectar, the drink of life that never ends. Here the Name is that drink. Think of coming in from a long, hot game and finally getting a cold glass of water. You stop looking for anything else. Man taripti-aa means the mind is content, and rasan chakhaa means the tongue has tasted it.
The verse speaks of a deeper thirst, tikhaa, that no toy or treat can fill. The Guru stills it. What is left is sukh sahj — peace that comes with natural ease.
What is the feeling of being content — not wanting anything more right now?
