The body's every vein is like a lute that continuously plays the tune of separation. However, only Sai's own heart can hear this sound.
Kabir, the Shayar, beautifully compares the body to a lute that constantly plays the tune of separation. This suggests that the human existence itself is marked by a deep longing for the divine. The metaphor implies that the yearning for the Beloved is so intimate and personal that its sound cannot be heard by anyone else. Only the heart of Sai—the divine consciousness—can truly perceive this unique, spiritual melody.
