Couplet 194-196


چوں کسے را خار در پایش خلد

When a thorn picked in someone’s foot



پائے خود را بر سرِ زانو نہد


He put his foot on his thigh

از سَرِ سوزن ہمی جوید سرش

He tries to find out its end by way of a needle



ور نیابد می کند بالب تَرَش


If not found, he uses to make that place moisten

خار در پا شد چنیں دشوار یاب

If it is that tough to find out the thorn in the foot



خار در دل چوں بود گوئی جواب


Then imagine! How much tough would be to find thorn of heart




               In these couplets, the discussion is regarding the caution and care taken by the celebrated doctor to find out the illness of the girl. It is stated that when a thorn pricks into someone, how much care is taken to remove the same. The person concerned keeps his leg on his thigh to see the thorn closely and try to find out the head of thorn through the needle. In case, if he could not, he moistens the area with saliva to find the same out. Thus in case finding out a thorn, you are taking so much precaution and methodical approach, then try to understand the difficulties in finding out the thorn which is there in the heart.
