Mi dear speech/words, enduring every venture/business. Without a stick and without a protective shield, the whole world weighs/judges it.
Kabir, the Shayar, beautifully highlights the incredible, enduring power of our words. He suggests that speech is a resilient force, enduring the constant judgment and trials of the world. This power is so profound that it needs neither a physical weapon nor any visible defense. The world weighs our words simply based on their inherent truth and impact, showing that the tongue itself is the greatest power.
