Sikhism·Raag Soohee·Shabad 52
Verse 2 of 5

A Wish The Name Fulfills

ਸਦਾ ਸਦਾ ਜਪੀਐ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮ ॥
sadaa sadaa japee-ai har naam.
Forever and ever, I chant the Lord's Name,
ਪੂਰਨ ਹੋਵਹਿ ਮਨ ਕੇ ਕਾਮ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
pooran hoveh man kay kaam. ||1|| rahaa-o.
and the desires of my mind are fulfilled. ||1||Pause||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Again and again, in every kind of moment, I keep the Name close.

And I find the truest wishes of my heart quietly coming true.

Steady remembrance quietly fulfills the heart’s truest wishes.
The deeper layer

sadaa sadaa japee-ai har naam — always remembering the Name. pooran hoveh man kay kaam — the mind’s kaam (deep wishes) fulfilled. This is the Pause line.

A Question to Sit With

What is a wish you have that is really about who you want to become?
