O traveler, put your fingers in your ears and listen closely; the sound of the caravan's bell can be heard clearly.

The poet is sharing a gentle spiritual secret—to truly hear life's deeper truths, you must first tune out the noisy chaos of the outside world. The 'caravan bell' (aawaz-e-dara) is a poignant metaphor for the march of time and the soul's calling, urging the traveler to quiet down and listen to the departure call that echoes within.
