Jab so prabhanjan ur grihan jai
Jab so prabhanjan ur grihan jai
Chaupai 7, Under Doha 118 · Uttar Kand
Chaupai Text
जब सो प्रभंजन उर गृहँ जाई। तबहिं दीप बिग्यान बुझाई॥ ग्रंथि न छूटि मिटा सो प्रकासा। बुद्धि बिकल भइ बिषय बतासा॥ ७ ॥
Transliteration (IAST)
jaba so prabhañjana ura gṛhaṃ jāī। tabahim̐ dīpa bigyāna bujhāī॥ granthi na chūṭi miṭā so prakāsā। buddhi bikala bhaī biṣaya batāsā॥ 7 ॥
Meaning
The moment that fierce wind enters the house of the heart, the lamp of knowledge is extinguished. The knot remains untied, and that light too is lost. The breeze of sense-objects throws the intellect into confusion.
