Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The soundless music of the Word is so beautiful, and real gladness comes from singing the One.
As I sing, the aches lift and a huge joy rises up inside; mind and body feel clean and bright, and the Name is on my lips.
Let me stay humble among good people and keep the One close — and please, keep blessing me, so I can sing Your praises always.
This verse is about a beautiful music inside, and the joy of singing to the One.
Anhat sabad suhaavaa: the anhat Word is beautiful. Anhat means "unstruck," a sound no drum or string makes. It is the inner music a calm heart can sense. The verse simply calls it suhaavaa, lovely.
Sach mangal har jas gaavaa: true joy is singing the One's praise. Think of how a favorite song can lift a whole bad mood in a car ride.
Ho-ay rayn saadhoo: becoming the dust under the feet of the holy. That sounds low, but think of soil. Nothing grows in the air. Humility is the soil where joy grows.
What song or activity fills you with a big, rising joy?
