Guru and Govind

Guru Govind dou khade, kake lagoon paay. Balihari guru aapne, Govind diyo batay. Guru and God both stand before me. Whose feet should I touch first? I give myself to my guru, who showed me God. The couplet is attributed to the poet Kabir. Its wording varies slightly between editions.
