Sorat'h, Fifth Mehl:
ਜਿਤੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਚਿਤਿ ਆਇਆ ॥ ਸੋ ਘਰੁ ਦਯਿ ਵਸਾਇਆ ॥
jit paarbarahm chit aa-i-aa. so ghar da-yi vasaa-i-aa.
The Supreme Lord God has established that home, in which He comes to mind.
ਸੁਖ ਸਾਗਰੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਇਆ ॥ ਤਾ ਸਹਸਾ ਸਗਲ ਮਿਟਾਇਆ ॥੧॥
sukh saagar gur paa-i-aa. taa sahsaa sagal mitaa-i-aa. ||1||
I found the Guru, the ocean of peace, and all my doubts were dispelled. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The place where the One comes to mind -- that is the true home He builds.
I found the teaching, an ocean of peace, and every doubt in me quieted down.
Home is less a place than a heart where the One is kept in mind.
Jit paarbarahm chit aa-i-aa, so ghar... vasaa-i-aa -- the home worth living in is the heart where the One is remembered. Sukh saagar -- an ocean of peace; doubt (sahsaa) settles in its depths.
A Question to Sit With
What makes a place feel like home to you -- and how much of it is inside you?
