The young buffaloes (or the immature seekers) did not venture to enter the water). Hence they stood on both banks of the river whose swift current did not abate even in its creeks. Those who can retain the image of their beloved in their mind as a bodily embellishment, however, dare enter the water. Such persons with the Beloved's image imprinted on their mind, shall take the whole creek with one step. (For them the span of the creek or the ferocity of its current are matters of no consequences).

On both the banks are the young buffaloes,
Current does not subside in the narrow stream,
Those, whose body's embellishment is image of the beloved,
They cross the stream in a single stride.
