Couplet 47


آئینہ ات دانی چرا غماّز  نیست
You know why is your mirror not resplendent



زانکہ ز نگار از رخش ممتاز نیست
Because its face is not free from rust

               Reason for not explaining the details of ishq above was that the listener  do not have the ability to understand and now Maulana details the reason for this so that the interest for burnishing one’s heart may be initiated. The reason is that the mirror i.e. heart of yours is full of rust of love for other than Allah and needs to be cleansed and because of this rust, the ability for comprehension of this subject is missing.
