Couplet 125


شہ چو پیشِ میہمانِ خویش رفت
When the king reaches to is guest


شاہ بود و لیک بس درویش رفت

Was a king, but approached with humility



The meeting off the king with the God-sent doctor, who was informed in the dream

         Though he was a king but he went to receive the doctor with humility of a beggar.

   The king met the guest with open hands and took him in his arms. In the second part, it is compared that like one uses to give the space in one’s heart for the love, similarly, the king has given him space in his heart.
