ਸਿਮਰਤ ਨਾਮੁ ਪ੍ਰਾਨ ਗਤਿ ਪਾਵੈ ॥
simrat naam paraan gat paavai.
Meditating in remembrance on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the mortal attains salvation.
ਮਿਟਹਿ ਕਲੇਸ ਤ੍ਰਾਸ ਸਭ ਨਾਸੈ ਸਾਧਸੰਗਿ ਹਿਤੁ ਲਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
miteh kalays taraas sabh naasai saaDhsang hit laavai. ||1|| rahaa-o.
His sorrows are dispelled, and his fears are all erased; he is in love with the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When I remember the Naam, my life is set free.
The aches wear away, every fear is gone, and I love being with the Sangat.
Quiet remembrance loosens fear and grows love for the Sangat.
Remembering the Naam frees a life and grows love for the Sangat.
Simrat naam — remembering the Naam — is simran, the practice at the center of the tradition; paraan gat paavai, life attains its release. Kalays (troubles) and traas (fear) fade, and hit — love — grows for the saaDhsang: the Sangat — people gathered together to remember the One.
