Maya (illusion) has become a deceitful woman, tricking all countries. Whoever tries to deceive this deceitful woman, I command that person be deceived (by Maya).

Kabir uses the metaphor of Maya as a deceitful woman to deliver a profound warning. He suggests that illusion, or worldly attachment, is everywhere, constantly trapping people in its beautiful but deceptive web. The core message is a stark warning: attempting to outsmart or escape Maya only ensures that you yourself become its victim. It beautifully captures the futility of worldly schemes against the powerful force of illusion.
