ਜਪਿ ਪੂਰਨ ਹੋਏ ਕਾਮਾ ॥੩॥
jap pooran ho-ay kaamaa. ||3||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
In the company of good-hearted people, the old weights slipped off me.
The Name is a treasure full of every goodness; holding it, the things that troubled me came right.
The company you keep can lift weights off you that you could not lift alone.
Sagal paraachhat laathay -- all the old faults fall away in saadh sangat (the company of the good-hearted). Gun nidhaan -- the Name is a treasure-house of every virtue.
