Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
What can I say, or speak, or describe?
Only You know Yourself, O wonder of wonders.
Nanak leans on the Door of the One; there, at the True Door, those turned to the Guru are sustained.
This one says when words run out, just lean on the One's door.
The shabad ends where talking stops. Ki-aa ha-o aakhaa — what can I say? Too aapay jaaneh — only You know Yourself. After all the talk about truth and passwords, Nanak admits the One is bigger than any description.
So he simply leans. Naanak ayko dar deebaan — Nanak's support is the door of the One. Think of a little kid resting against a parent's side, not needing to understand everything. Those who face the Guru are fed and kept strong right there at the True Door. They don't grasp the One fully. They stay close. Being near matters more than knowing it all.
Can you rest near something you don't fully understand, simply because you trust it?
