To aaj ye sikwa ye sikayat na jamane se hoti

Roshni ka hisaab lene ke pahle
diye ka boota koota to hota

Before asking for the accounts of light emitted by the earthen lamp, you should have assessed the capacity thereof

... Diye mein diya the saneh hi kitna
bati mein bat bhi the kitde kam

Please look for yourself, the oil poured by you in the lamp was grossly inadequate, and the wick, it was really weak not properly prepared

(Similarly the word diya connotes the new generation put up through the earthen lamp, the wick symbolizes the training given by us to the newer ones)

Jo na thaki hoti hatheliya tumhari
jo udeli hoti boond saneh ki do aur

na jhuki ye aankhe aaj tumhari yu hoti
