Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
You have a thousand thousand eyes, and yet no eyes. A thousand forms, and yet not a single form.
Countless feet, and yet no feet. No nose. Yet a thousand noses. I am completely spellbound by Your play!
The One lives in every creature, and yet is bigger than any single shape.
This part sings a wonderful puzzle. Sahas tav nain nan nain hai tohi — thousands are Your eyes, and yet You have no eyes. A thousand forms, yet not one form. Countless feet, yet no feet.
How can both be true? The One lives in every creature. So every eye and every foot in the world belongs, in a way, to the One. And the One is beyond all shape, so none of them is the One's own. Think of the ocean. It is in every wave, yet it is not any one wave. Guru Nanak ends in wonder: iv chalat mohee — I am spellbound by this play.
How can something be everywhere at once and still be beyond being pinned down?
