Trees That Do Not Eat

Rahim

तरुवर फल नहिं खात हैं, सरबर पियहिं न पान। कहि रहीम पर काज हित, संपति सँचहि सुजान

Meaning · English

Trees do not eat their own fruit and lakes do not drink their own water. The wise gather wealth for the sake of others.

अर्थ · हिन्दी

पेड़ अपना फल नहीं खाते, तालाब अपना पानी नहीं पीते। समझदार लोग दूसरों के भले के लिए धन जोड़ते हैं।
