Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa
Water becomes dry land, dry land becomes a well, a well becomes a mountain.
Someone is lifted as high as the sky, then set gently back down on the ground. Everything shifts its shape.
Even land and sky can trade places in this changing world.
Kabir's pictures get bigger. Water turns into dry land. Dry land turns into a well. A well turns into a mountain.
Then he goes up and down. Someone is lifted high into the sky, then brought back down to the ground.
Think of sand at the beach. The waves build a hill, then wash it flat, then build it again.
Kabir treats big rises and falls like ordinary weather. They are part of a world that is always changing, not a punishment.
What helps you stay steady when things around you keep changing?
