Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those who meet with the True Teacher with joy and openness — they are perfectly fulfilled and wise.
Meeting with the teaching, they cross over the terrifying world-ocean. In the deepest court, they are honored and approved.
O Nanak, their faces are radiant. The music of the teaching wells up within them.
The closing pauri is luminous: mukh ujlay — radiant faces. The external world sees something in the genuinely aligned. Something shows. This radiance is not physical beauty but the visible quality of inner completeness.
"The Music of the Shabad wells up within them" — anhad sabd vajaaveh — the unstruck melody plays from inside them, not as something they perform but as something that arises naturally from what they have become.
What is something beautiful that comes out of you without you trying — something that you are rather than something you do?
