साहिब तेरी साहिबी , सब घट रही समाय। ज्यों मेहँदी के पात में , लाली रखी न जाय॥ 233॥
— Kabir
Meaning
O beloved, your companionship is pervading every heart. Just as the crimson dye cannot be contained within the henna leaf.
Explanation
This couplet beautifully illustrates the pervasive and inescapable nature of the beloved's presence. The 'Sahibi' (companionship) has spread through every heart, suggesting an influence that transcends physical boundaries. Just as the crimson dye cannot be contained within the henna leaf, Kabir suggests that this divine love is too vast and natural to be confined or controlled.
