Verse 5 of 5

Listen, Friend

ਸੁਣਿ ਸਾਜਨ ਸੰਤ ਜਨ ਭਾਈ ॥
sun saajan sant jan bhaa-ee.
Listen, O Friend, O Saint, O humble Sibling of Destiny:
ਚਰਣ ਸਰਣ ਨਾਨਕ ਗਤਿ ਪਾਈ ॥੫॥੩੪॥੪੦॥
charan saran naanak gat paa-ee. ||5||34||40||
in the Sanctuary of the Lord's Feet, Nanak has found Salvation. ||5||34||40||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

Listen, friend — here is where the wandering ends.

Coming to rest at the feet of the One, close to the good, I finally found my footing.

The wandering ends when you come to rest near the good.
The deeper layer

sun saajan sant jan bhaa-ee — listen, friend, good one, kindred; charan saran gat paa-ee — in the refuge of the feet, release is found. The close turns outward, addressing a companion, sharing the discovery.

A Question to Sit With

Who is a friend you would want to share something important with?
