Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Those made new and green again by the Beloved belong to no one else.
Says Kabir: they have truly come to know the Name.
Those made new by the One belong only to the One, and that belonging is how they come to know the Name.
Jo har haray so hohi na aanaa — those whom the One has made green again belong to no one else. Haray means green, fresh, brought back to life. Nothing else can claim them.
Think of a tree that looked bare all winter and turns green again in spring. It is fully alive once more.
Kahi kabeer raam naam pachhaanaa — says Kabir, they have come to know the Name. That belonging is the knowing. To know the Name is to be so refreshed by it that you are simply, fully at home.
What is something that refreshes you so completely you feel like your true self again?
