Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Keep the One in mind, and joy rises up; the old fears of coming and going lose their sting.
Every treasure worth having arrives, and that gnawing sense of "not enough" simply quiets down.
Jaa kai simran ho-ay anandaa — holding the One in mind brings anand, deep gladness, and eases the fear-knot around janam maran (the churn of coming and going). The chaar padaarath and nav nidh — the four blessings and nine treasures — are the old shorthand for "everything worth having"; the real gift, though, is the last line: bahur na trisnaa bhukhee — the endless hunger for more finally settles. Contentment is the true treasure.
What would "enough" feel like for you — and are you closer to it than you think?
