Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The teacher's kindness never runs dry. Without that gift, what could anyone gain?
The One looks on everyone with the very same loving glance — and what grows in us grows in the shape of the love we bring.
When the Name settles inside, the small grasping self quietly loosens its hold.
This one says the One looks at everyone the same way, and what grows in us depends on the love we bring.
Satguroo sadaa da-i-aal hai — the true Teacher is always kind. Then the verse asks, vin bhaagaa ki-aa paa-ee-ai: without that gift of good fortune, what can anyone get? Grace is always here. The question is whether we open up to it.
Ayk nadar kar vaykhai sabh oopar — the One looks on everyone with the very same glance. No one is looked at differently, whatever their family or rank. Jayhaa bhaa-o tayhaa fal — you receive the fruit that fits the love you bring. It isn't a payout. It's like an echo in a canyon. Sing softly, and it sings softly back.
Vichahu aap gavaa-ee-ai — when the Name settles inside, the small grabbing self lets go.
How does the love you bring to something change what you get back from it?
