Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Keep remembering, keep turning toward the One, and the water rises up to meet you. It is clear and pure, cooling every thirst, says Kabir.
Keep remembering the One, and the cool water rises up.
Chaytat chaytat niksi-o neer — by remembering and remembering, the water comes up. So jal nirmal kathat kabeer — Kabir says, that water is nirmal, clean and pure.
This is Naam simran, remembering the Name of the One again and again. It uncovers the relief that was always near. Think of digging a well. You keep digging, steady and patient, and one day cool water rises to meet you. Remembering is the very thing that brings the water up.
What quiet practice helps a calm, clear feeling rise up in you?
