Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Listen, my friends, to the story of the One that words can never fully hold.
Just taking it in eases your worry, softens your pain, and quiets the hunger that never seemed to stop.
There is a story about the One that words can never fully hold, and just listening to it brings peace.
This is the rahaa-o, the "pause" line, the center of the song. Har kee akath kathaa — the akath kathaa, "the story that can't be told." It sounds like a puzzle. It means telling something bigger than any words.
Sunhu jan bhaa-ee — "Listen, friends." Listening deeply is the key.
Sahsaa dookh bhookh sabh leh jaa-ay — it takes away sahsaa, worry, dookh, pain, and bhookh, hunger. Think of your favorite song at the end of a hard day. You can't explain why, but you feel lighter.
What is something too big to fully explain, that still brings you peace?
