Kyuun Na Saafi Us Kuun Hasil Ho Jo Misl-e-arsi — Wali Dakhani
Meaning
Why would purity and clarity not be attained by one who, like a mirror, turned completely into water out of modesty for his own inner essence?
Explanation
In the old days, mirrors were crafted from polished metal, and the fine grain or luster inside them was called 'jauhar'. The poet suggests that when a person recognizes their own brilliance and melts away in genuine humility—turning entirely to water from modesty rather than swelling with pride—they naturally attain the purest spiritual clarity. True luminescence belongs to those whose ego dissolves into absolute grace.
