Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Holding the kind One in mind again and again, I found the whole world grew gentle toward me.
Praise to the Lord of everything, who made this beautiful, perfect world.
This one says: keep remembering the Kind One, and the world grows kind to you.
Simar simar da-i-aalaa — remembering the Merciful One again and again. Sabh jee-a bha-ay kirpaalaa — all beings became kind to me. Think of walking into class smiling. Somehow, everyone smiles back.
Then comes a cheer: jai jai kaar gusaa-ee, praise to the Lord of the world. Jin pooree banat banaa-ee — who made this perfect creation. Stopping to wonder at the world is itself a way of saying thank you.
How does your own mood change the way the world seems to treat you?
