O! My mind, utter the Charmer-Divine’s Nam for liberation.
Millions upon millions of transgressions totally eliminated,
All-Pervasive enables world-ocean crossing. 1. Reflect.
All-Pervasive Divine abides in the body-town,
All-Pervasive is fear-less, foe-less, form-less.
All-Pervasive wasn’t visible though dwelling nearby,
All-Pervasive is discovered through Guru-reflection. 1.
All-Pervasive Self is the lender, appraiser, jewel, diamond.
All-Pervasive Self created the expanse.
Nanak: Graced one buys All-Pervasive Nam,
That one is the eternal lender and trader. 2.
We are finite; our understanding is finite. Our understanding was different yesterday and may evolve tomorrow as we deepen our relationship with the Sabad. In this trans-creation, we have chosen to keep the repeating words in the Sabad same. We aspire to learn and retain the Divine attribute used in the original Sabad and avoid terms like God or Lord.

In saloks thirty-seven through sixty-five, Sheikh Farid Ji describes the typical human life, where beings are drawn to glittery yet ultimately harmful transient things and relationships, spending their entire lives in pursuit of them.
In saloks sixteen to thirty-six, Sheikh Farid Ji reminds us that humility is a noble virtue essential for life. A seeker in love with IkOankar (the Divine) perceives the Divine in all and remains ever humble.
