Those seekers who took to the jungle (i.e. the indirect) route did not miss the way (to the goal,) but the others who kept to the highway foundered (due to Satan’s machinations) and lost. Those seekers, however, who renounced both worlds, would not go off the right track.
Note: Both worlds mean ambition for property etc in this world and Paradise and its blessings in the next world.
تابہشت و دوزخ در رہ بود
جانِ تو زیں راز کی آگاہ بود
So long Paradise and Hell constitute an obstruction, how can your mind acquire knowledge of the Divine mysteries?

Those who went to jungle were not misled, those on high way were way-laid,
Those who gave up both the worlds, were from ignorance saved.

Those, who go to jungle do not get lost,
those who traverse beaten track are robbed,
they are not misled who give up both the worlds.

Jungle burnt into ashes, hideouts of thieves were destroyed,
Seeker and the sought got united.
