ਦੀਦਨੇ ਦੀਦਾਰ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਕਛੁ ਨਹੀ ਇਸ ਕਾ ਮੋਲੁ ॥
deednay deedaar saahib kachh nahee is kaa mol.
The value of seeing the Vision of the Lord Master cannot be estimated.
ਪਾਕ ਪਰਵਦਗਾਰ ਤੂ ਖੁਦਿ ਖਸਮੁ ਵਡਾ ਅਤੋਲੁ ॥੧॥
paak parvardagaar too khud khasam vadaa atol. ||1||
You are the Pure Cherisher; You Yourself are the great and immeasurable Lord and Master. ||1||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The worth of seeing You cannot be measured.
You are the pure Cherisher; You yourself are the great, immeasurable Master.
Some things are beyond pricing because they're beyond the whole system of price — like the sight of what you most love.
The verse marvels at the immeasurable worth of darshan — the sight of the One "cannot be estimated." Some things are beyond pricing precisely because they are beyond the whole system of price; the sight of the Beloved is one. And the One is named "the Pure Cherisher" — vast and immeasurable, yet tender, one who cherishes. Greatness and gentleness in one being, worth more than any measure could hold.
A Question to Sit With
What in your life is 'beyond measure' — too valuable to put a price on?
