ઇન્સાફી તખ્ત પર કરાલ કાલ જાગે- દેવા પાપીને દંડ ઘોર કાલ જાગે.
— Jhaverchand Meghani
Meaning

On the throne of justice, fierce Kaal awakens. Giving sinners dire punishment, Kaal awakens.

Explanation

This powerful couplet speaks of ultimate justice. It tells us that on the throne of fairness, a fierce and formidable power, often personified as 'Kala' or Time, awakens. This isn't just any time; it's a force ready to deliver consequences. It specifically rises to punish those who have committed wrongs, the sinners. The message is clear: when it comes to giving out severe punishment, this terrible force, whether you call it destiny, divine justice, or the Lord of Death, is vigilant and will ensure that wrongdoers face their due. It reassures us that no sin goes unpunished in the grand scheme of things.
