Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You are an ocean of goodness. My home and everything I own were always Yours.
With You as my keeper, the whole world feels gentle toward me.
When you know everything is a gift, the world starts to feel gentler.
Gunee gahayraa -- deep with virtue, an ocean of goodness. Sabh jee-a bha-ay da-i-aalaa -- when a heart rests in the One, even its surroundings soften; kindness met is often kindness given first.
