Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
I have taken in that love which soaks my very soul.
I am pierced through by Truth, Nanak; the Master seems so sweet to me.
"Pierced by the Truth" (sach vidhaa) — a striking image: the truth of the One has entered the seeker like an arrow, gone all the way in, so deep it cannot be removed. And the result is not pain but sweetness: "the Master seems so sweet to me." The love has "drenched my soul" — soaked all the way through (the Rang, the fast dye). This is the taste of the previous verse now personal and complete: the seeker doesn't just know the One is sweet in theory; he has been pierced by it, dyed by it, and finds the One sweet with his own tongue.
What would it mean to be so deeply reached by something true that it soaks all the way through you?
