Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Just like that, I, Kabir, have been changed, calling on the One.
I have become true all the way through, and I go nowhere else.
Once the One changes you, you become true, and the restless searching rests.
This is the Rahao, the "pause" line. It is the center of the shabad. Kabir uses his own name: bigri-o kabeeraa, Kabir has been changed. It happened by calling on Raam, the One.
Saach bha-i-o an kateh na jaa-ee: he has become true, and he goes nowhere else. Think of a kid who has tried every seat on the bus and finally finds the one by the window they love. They stop moving around. Kabir has found his place with the One. The restless searching is over.
What is something that, once you found it, made you stop looking for anything else?
