“How one wastes the night with sleep, and the day with eating. How the priceless diamond cannot be exchanged for a cowrie shell.”
رات کو نیند میں اور دن کو کھانا ضائع کرنا۔ ہیرا پیدائش سے انمول ہوتا ہے، جسے کوڑی سے نہیں بدلا جا سکتا۔
Kabir is giving us a profound lesson about the value of our time. He questions how we waste the night in sleep and the day in mere eating, pointing to a neglect of life's deeper purpose. The comparison between the diamond and the cowrie shell beautifully shows that something priceless—like inner wisdom or a full life—cannot be exchanged for anything trivial. Kabir's message is a gentle but firm call to live with intention and recognize the immense value of every moment.
