Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I keep looking for the kind of friend who could bring me close to the One I love.
And when I met the teaching, that's just what happened — I found the One, and it came about easily and naturally, the way things fall into place when they're meant to.
Guru Arjan looks for a friend who can bring him to the One he loves, and he finds that friend in the Guru.
Ko-ee aisaa sajan lorh lahu — "Find me a sajan, a friend like that." Mai preetam day-ay milaa-ay — "one who can bring me to my Beloved."
Think of a new kid at school who wants to join the chess club, but doesn't know anyone. Then one friend walks them in and introduces them.
Satgur mili-ai har paa-i-aa — "Meeting the True Guru, I found the One." Mili-aa sahj subhaa-ay — it happened in sahaj, with easy, natural calm, with no struggle at all.
Who in your life connects you to the things that matter most?
