Couplet 452-457


چوں وزیر ایں مکر را بر شہ شمرد

When vizier explained this trap before the king



از دلش اندیزہ را کُلّی ببُرد


Removed all the perplexities from his heart


کرد باوے شاہ آں کاریکہ گفت

The king did exactly what he told to do



خلق حیراں ماندزاں رازِ نہفت


And people are unaware of the secret hidden

کرد رسوایش میانِ انجمن

The king disgraced him in full assembly



تاکہ واقف شد زحالش مرد و زن


Till each and every person would become aware of his status


را ند اُو را جانبِ نصرانیاں

He was forced to move towards Christian population



کرد در دعوت شروع اُو بعد ازاں


He then started the work of propagation of Christianity


چوں چناں دیدند ترسایانش زار

When Christians saw his impoverished condition



می شد نداند رغمِ اُو اشکبار


They started wailing on this position of his




حالِ عالم ایں چنیاں ست اے پسر

O’ my son! This is status of worldly life



از حسَد مییخزد    انیہا سَر بسَر


And all these things are started from jealousy



                 The king became satisfied and free of any hesitation when the vizier has explained his tricks. The king meted out to him the same fate as he desired earlier to the king. All the people were puzzled/ astonished seeing the fate of this vizier who was once very close to the king. Thus he was disgraced in full view of public and everybody became aware of the situation of the vizier and he was pushed towards the Christian population out of the city. The vizier then started people calling towards the religion i.e. Christianity, as was planned. Maulana Rum then states that the situation of the People of this world (اہلِ دنیا) is similar nowadays and people are using different tricks in jealousy, even though it may harm them as well.
