Meaning · GurVichaar explanation, not a scholarly translation

I speak the truth — all of you, listen: only those who love have found the Divine.

ਮੈਂ ਸੱਚ ਆਖਦਾ ਹਾਂ — ਤੁਸੀਂ ਸਾਰੇ ਸੁਣੋ: ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਜਿਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਕੀਤਾ, ਉਨ੍ਹਾਂ ਨੇ ਹੀ ਰੱਬ ਨੂੰ ਪਾਇਆ।

Context

This line is by Guru Gobind Singh Ji.

It is from the Dasam Granth. The Sikh Rehat Maryada includes several Dasam Granth compositions in Nitnem; the authorship of parts of the Dasam Granth is discussed by scholars, in Tav-Prasad Savaiye.

A single line is best understood within its full Shabad.
