वाइ'ज़ नहीं कैफ़िय्यत-ए-मय-ख़ाना से आगाह

Meaning

Do not be informed of the tavern's intoxication, for one brave change, or else this handkerchief will be placed upon you.

Explanation

This couplet is a sharp critique of hypocrisy. The 'Waiz' (preacher/scholar) is portrayed as someone who is completely ignorant of the true spirit and experience of the 'may-khana' (wine house)—a place of unrestrained freedom. The poet warns that if the individual does not change their behavior or appearance, the judgment (the 'pindi'l' or handkerchief) will be placed upon them. It suggests that true freedom and experience are often misunderstood by those who preach from a distance.
