Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
When I hold the One close inside my heart, I feel like I have come all the way home, safe and whole.
The whole world quiets and settles around me, and the teaching carries me the rest of the way.
Holding the One in your heart feels like coming home.
parabh apunaa ridai dhiaaay — meditate on the One within the heart; ghar sahee salaamat aaay — arrived home safe and sound; santokh bhaiaa — contentment came. Meditation held in the heart brings the settled feeling of homecoming.
