Sikhism·Raag Soohee·Shabad 35
Verse 4 of 5

A Face Made Bright

ਜਾ ਕੀ ਧੀਰਕ ਇਸੁ ਮਨਹਿ ਸਧਾਰੇ ॥
jaa kee Dheerak is maneh saDhaaray.
His comfort and consolation soothes and supports my mind.
ਜਾ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਣਿ ਮੁਖ ਉਜਲਾਰੇ ॥੩॥
jaa kai simran mukh ujlaaray. ||3||
Remembering Him in meditation, my face is radiant and bright. ||3||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Their steadiness comforts my mind and holds me up.

Keeping the One in mind, my whole face lights up from the inside.

A settled, remembering heart shows up as light in your face.
The deeper layer

jaa kee Dheerak is maneh saDhaaray — the comfort that supports the mind. jaa kai simran mukh ujlaaray — remembrance makes the face ujal, radiant. Inner peace shows outwardly; a settled heart brightens even the face.

A Question to Sit With

Whose face lights up when they are doing what they love?
