Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
O my sleepy mind, wake up and understand — holy people are telling the story that words cannot hold.
Gather the profit: hold the One in your heart, and the tiring round of coming and going comes to rest.
A gentle call wakes the sleepy part of the mind and asks it to gather what matters.
Samajh achayt chayt man mayray means "understand, wake up, my sleepy mind." It is a kind way of talking to yourself. Think of an alarm that plays soft music instead of a loud buzz. No harsh names, just a gentle call.
Holy people tell an akath kahaanee, a story too big for words. Laabh laihu means gather the profit: hold the One in your heart. Then aavan jaanee, the tiring round of coming and going, chhutkai — comes to rest.
What is a kind way to talk to yourself when you have drifted off track?
