ਕਹਿਓ ਕਬੀਰ ਬਿਚਾਰਿ ਕੈ ਸੰਤ ਸੁਨਹੁ ਮਨ ਮਾਹਿ ॥੧੮੦॥
kahi-o kabeer bichaar kai sant sunhu man maahi. ||180||
Kabir speaks after careful consideration; hear this, O Saints, in your minds. ||180||
Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Where the Fearless One is, there is no fear; where there is fear, the One is not there.
Kabir says, after thinking it through: O saints, listen to this inside your minds.
Where the Fearless One lives, fear has no room.
Fear and the Fearless One cannot fill the same heart.
Jah anbha-o tah bhai nahee: where the Fearless One is, fear is not. Jah bha-o tah har naahi: where fear is, the One is not felt. Kahi-o kabeer bichaar kai: Kabir says this after thinking it through, and asks the saints to hear it in their minds.
