कुटिल बचन सबसे बुरा , जासे होत न हार। साधु वचन जल रूप है , बरसे अम्रत धार॥
— Kabir
Meaning
Deceitful words are the worst, those which never lose their effect. The words of a saint are like water, raining a stream of nectar.
Explanation
Kabir delivers a profound lesson here. He draws a striking contrast between the persistent poison of deceitful words and the divine healing power of truth. The Shayar suggests that falsehood is the worst, as it never concedes defeat. Conversely, the words of a saint are compared to water, raining a stream of nectar that purifies the soul and brings spiritual sustenance.
