Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
This whole world is the work of the True One.
And that One alone is the Master of everyone.
One Master holds every life, however different those lives look.
This is the rahaa-o line. Rahaa-o means "pause." It is the center of the shabad, the line that ties all the other verses together.
Rachnaa saach banee — this whole world is made by the True One. Rachnaa means creation, everything that was made. Saach means real and true.
Sabh kaa ayk Dhanee — there is one Dhanee, one Owner and Keeper, of everyone.
The other verses show how differently people live. This line says what they share. Think of the many different apps on one phone. They all look different, but they all run on the same power. Under every life runs one shared source.
What do all people, however different, have in common?
