Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who love You keep their thoughts turned toward good and kind things.
You keep their honor safe and quietly arrange whatever they need, out of pure generosity.
My Beloved is so kind, and that power is there for all to see.
I came to Your shelter, and my heart's wish came true.
This one says: the One arranges what loving hearts need.
This is the Rahao, the "pause" line at the center of the shabad. Subh chitvan daas tumaaray: those who love You keep good thoughts. Daas means servant, someone devoted. Raakhahi paij daas apunay kee kaaraj aap savaaray: You keep their honor safe, and You Yourself arrange their affairs.
Think of a coach who quietly sets out water, cones, and snacks before practice even starts. The team just shows up, and everything is ready.
The Guru calls the One par-upkaaree, endlessly generous to others. He came to the One's shelter, and his heart's wish came true.
What kind thought could you turn toward when your mind starts to spin?
