You Are the One They Lean On

ਭਗਤਾ ਕੀ ਟੇਕ ਤੂੰ ਸੰਤਾ ਕੀ ਓਟ ਤੂੰ ਸਚਾ ਸਿਰਜਨਹਾਰਾ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
bhagtaa kee tayk tooN santaa kee ot tooN sachaa sirjanhaaraa. ||1|| rahaa-o.
You are the Support of Your devotees, and the Shelter of the Saints, O True Creator Lord. ||1||Pause||

Translation by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa

In plain words

You are the one that good and loving people lean on — the shelter they come to.

You are the true maker of everything, holding it all together.

The people we lean on are themselves leaning on something steady.
The deeper layer

The rahaao. bhagtaa kee tayk too santaa kee ot too — You are the prop of the devotees, the shelter of the saints; sachaa sirjanhaaraa — the true Creator. The One as the reliable support beneath the reliable people.

A Question to Sit With

Who do the people you trust most seem to lean on themselves?
