ਤੂੰ ਸਾਜਨੁ ਤੂੰ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਮੁ ਮੇਰਾ ॥
tooN saajan tooN pareetam mayraa.
You are my Friend, You are my Beloved.
ਚਿਤਹਿ ਨ ਬਿਸਰਹਿ ਕਾਹੂ ਬੇਰਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
chiteh na bisrahi kaahoo bayraa. ||1|| rahaa-o.
I shall never forget You. ||1||Pause||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are my Friend; You are the one I love most.
I will never let You slip out of my thoughts, not for a single moment.
Love keeps the one it loves in mind, even when they are not in the room.
The Rahao names the relationship as friendship — tooN saajan tooN preetam mayraa. chiteh na bisrahi kaahoo bayraa: the vow is one of unbroken remembrance, keeping the loved One in mind the way you hold someone dear even when they are not in the room.
A Question to Sit With
Who do you keep in your thoughts even when they are far away?
