Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In good company I sang the One's praise and found the truest wealth there is.
When the puffed-up sense of being separate quietly dissolved, I began to see the One in everything.
When the loud sense of being separate quiets down, the One becomes visible everywhere.
aap mitaaiaa — the self-conceit (haumai) erased; sabh paarbrahm nadree aaiaa — the One seen everywhere. Ego framed as something to gently dissolve, not a crime.
