Saarang, Fifth Mehl:
ਹਰਿ ਹਰਿ ਦੀਓ ਸੇਵਕ ਕਉ ਨਾਮ ॥
har har dee-o sayvak ka-o naam.
The Lord has blessed His servant with His Name.
ਮਾਨਸੁ ਕਾ ਕੋ ਬਪੁਰੋ ਭਾਈ ਜਾ ਕੋ ਰਾਖਾ ਰਾਮ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
maanas kaa ko bapuro bhaa-ee jaa ko raakhaa raam. ||1|| rahaa-o.
What can any poor mortal do to someone who has the Lord as his Savior and Protector? ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The One has given the Naam to the one who serves.
Friend, what can any person do to someone the One protects?
When the One is your keeper, fear loses its power to shake you.
Har har dee-o sayvak ka-o naam — the One gives the servant the Name. Jaa ko raakhaa raam — the One as protector — is the ground of fearlessness (nirbhau): not that hard things never come, but that the deepest self is safe, so fear loses its grip.
A Question to Sit With
