The verse and its meaning · Suvichar · Suvichar — Kabir
Ghee from Water
Kabir
मनह मनोरथ छाँड़िये, तेरा किया न होइ ।
पाणी में घीव नीकसै, तो रूखा खाइ न कोइ ॥
Meaning · English
Drop your schemes; what you plan does not come to pass. If ghee came out of water, no one would eat dry bread.
अर्थ · हिन्दी
मन की योजनाएँ छोड़ दे, तेरे किए कुछ नहीं होता। पानी से घी निकलता तो रूखी रोटी कौन खाता।
