Couplet 189-190


خانہ خالی کرد شاہ و شد بروں

The king made the palace empty and moved out



تا  بخواند بر کنیزک اُں فسوں


So that he (doctor) would chant hymns on handmaiden

خانہ خالی  کرد و یک دیار نے

The palace was vacated, no one from the palace was there



جُز طبیب و جُز ہُماں بیمار نے


Except the doctor and the sick



                 فسوں means the hymns i.e. good mannered talks of the doctor to please the handmaiden. دیار means the people who were living in the palace. The king has made the house empty and he himself went out of the house, so that doctor should discuss with the patient. The house became completely empty and no one from the house was there inside barring the doctor and the patient.
