We elevated every lowly and humble person to great heights; our modesty and humility proved very beneficial to us.

In this couplet, the poet reflects on the strange power of 'khaaksari'—true humility and self-effacement. By lowering themselves and keeping their ego in the dust, they ended up lifting every ordinary soul around them to noble heights. There is also a gentle, bittersweet irony lingering beneath the surface: sometimes our profound modesty allows undeserving people to rise and feel exalted at our expense.
