In the extreme winter month of Poh, Panjab longs for her love. Her lover replies, “She is his heartbeat.”

In the extreme winter month of Poh, Panjab longs for her love. Her lover replies, “She is his heartbeat.”

It is the month of Poh.
Frost covers the fields.
I long for you.
Where are you?

It is the month of Poh.
Frost covers the Delhi nights.
Resting at the Farmers Protests.
Is where I am.

Beautiful Punjab!
You are here with me.
My every breath is you.
I am here for you.

It is you that is guiding me,
To follow Sikh principles.
It is you that is urging me,
To repeal the Farm Laws.

It is your song that nurtures me.
It is your water that sweetens me.
It is your food that strengthens me.
I am here for you.

My heart beats for you.
My every breath is you.
Will, you wait for me,
My beautiful Panjab!

Pierced by Compassion

Some sabads remain on the page. Others begin to live inside us. In this reflection, Santbir Singh returns to a sabad of Guru Nanak Sahib on Ang 795 that has become an ardas in moments of grief, stress, and surrender.
