बानी से पहचानिए , साम चोर की घात। अन्दर की करनी से सब , निकले मुँह की बात॥ 218॥
— Kabir
Meaning
The couplet suggests that one can discern the cunning trap or nature of a person from their speech, and ultimately, all things they say are revealed by their inner actions and deeds.
Explanation
Kabir emphasizes that external speech is frequently a misleading facade, masking the true intentions of the heart. We must learn to look past the mere words to recognize the subtle deceit. The Shayar asserts that a person's inner deeds are the ultimate truth, acting as a mirror that inevitably reveals the genuine nature of their speech. It’s a deep commentary on integrity and genuine character.
