Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have become fearless, and every fear I used to carry has quietly gone.
I lean my whole weight on the One who holds me.
Nanak says: through the Guru's word I have said the Naam,
and now I am known throughout the world.
Leaning your whole weight on the One, every fear falls away.
Nirbha-o bha-ay sagal bha-o miti-aa — I became fearless, and all fear was wiped away. Fearless love is a keynote running through Raag Saarang.
Charan kamal aadhaarai means leaning on the lotus feet. A lotus is a beautiful flower that grows out of muddy water. The One's "feet" are the safe place to lean, like leaning back into a parent's arms.
Pargat bha-i-o sansaarai means "became known in the world." That is the inner light becoming visible. Grace shines out through a whole life.
What is a fear that feels smaller when you are not carrying it alone?
