गाँठि न थामहिं बाँध ही , नहिं नारी सो नेह। कह कबीर वा साधु की , हम चरनन की खेह॥
— Kabir
Meaning

Kabir says that neither can a knot be tied nor can a woman's affection be held. He says that we are in the river of your feet.

Explanation

Sitting here, Kabir reminds us that neither physical knots can bind us, nor can human affection keep us tethered. He uses this observation to teach us about the ephemeral nature of worldly attachments. Kabir’s unique perspective guides us away from superficial bonds toward a deeper truth. The ultimate refuge, he suggests, is to surrender our lives entirely into the sacred stream of the saint's feet, finding eternal peace there.
