परनारी का राचणौ , जिसकी लहसण की खानि। खूणैं बेसिर खाइय , परगट होइ दिवानि॥ 277॥
— Kabir
Meaning
This couplet states that a woman's beauty is like a mine of fragrant grace; whose breath is sweet and who glows with divine light.
Explanation
Kabir elevates the description of a woman far beyond mere physical beauty. He uses the metaphor of a 'mine of fragrance' (लहसण की खानि) to suggest that her essence is rich with inherent grace. The Shayar emphasizes that her true beauty is rooted in her virtuous nature, symbolized by her sweet breath. Ultimately, the 'divine light' (दिवानि) indicates that her radiance is spiritual, suggesting that inner divinity is the greatest adornment.
