સાગર પીનારા! અંજિલ નવ ઢોળજો, બાપુ! અણખૂટ વિશ્વાસે વહ્યું જીવન તમારું:
— Jhaverchand Meghani
Meaning

O ocean-drinkers, do not spill the offering held in your cupped hands. Your life has flowed, sustained by inexhaustible trust.

Explanation

This couplet encourages us to value every small blessing, even if we've achieved great things. It reminds someone who has conquered immense challenges—'drank the ocean'—not to carelessly spill the 'handful' they hold. This isn't just about water; it's a metaphor for not wasting present moments, peace, or the small joys. The second line beautifully adds that their entire journey has been powered by an 'inexhaustible trust'. So, the message is: cherish what you have, big or small, and remember the unwavering faith that has guided your path.
