Since the dagger-bearer-of-the-hands has become the butcher, this country of oppressors has become purified. Literally, the couplet suggests that the land of oppressors has become cleansed or pure since the 'dagger-bearer' transformed into a butcher.
This powerful couplet speaks of revolutionary change and the cleansing power of justice. The 'Kanjer-e-Kaf' (dagger of the hand/cause) symbolizes the act of resistance or the revolutionary spirit itself. When this instrument of change becomes sacred or morally pure ('Safsak'), it suggests that the movement for justice has achieved an undeniable moral legitimacy. Consequently, the entire nation ('Mulk') is cleansed and purified from the grip of oppression and injustice ('Sitam-zadon').
