नेक बद ख़ुर्द बुज़ुर्गों ने नहीं जिसको फ़र्क़
ऐसे अहमक़ से न ही हमको सरोकार ख़ुदा
— Shah Turab Ali Qalandar
Meaning
One who cannot distinguish between good and evil or between the young and the elders; O God, we want nothing to do with such a fool.
Explanation
In this couplet, the poet speaks about the vital importance of moral clarity and social grace. A person who cannot distinguish between virtue and vice, or who lacks the basic decency to respect elders and nurture the young, is considered the truest fool. It reads like a heartfelt prayer to God to preserve one's peace by keeping distance from such willful ignorance.
