Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
The Amrit — the Ambrosial Nectar — is in the Guru's Will. With intuitive ease, it is obtained.
Those who are destined to have it, drink it in. Their egotism is eradicated from within.
O Nanak, the Gurmukh meditates on the Name and is united with the True Lord.
The closing pauri resolves the shabad: the nectar is in the Guru's Will — sahaj subhaa-ay (with intuitive ease, naturally). The obtaining is effortless when the alignment is genuine.
"Those who are destined" — again the destiny frame, not as fatalism but as the recognition that receptivity itself is a grace. The prepared heart receives what the unprepared heart cannot.
What things in your life have come most naturally — without strain — and turned out to be the most meaningful? What does that pattern tell you?
