Her beloved (being unwell) was not able to enter the river. On that account her mind went out to him. The river was very tumultuous and forbidding. (But merely to long for the beloved and sit inactive would be unbearable.) Yearning itself is fraught with suspense and pain. Her mind was in turmoil due to love, and the beloved's recollections overwhelmed her. She looked for the light in the forest on both sides of the river. (She sought guidance and succour.) She very much wished that her float, the unbaked jar, may come to no harm in water.
The Prophet is a luminous lamp. (47, Al-Ahzab).
Note: If ڪچي is read as ڪيچي the last stanza may be 'There will positively be harm from the river. Would that her love is not impaired on that account and she becomes disreputable."

Thought he did not enter into the river,
Her mind was set on the beloved,
The river was high, yearning was very very painful,
As his image surged in hear heart,
She thought of nothing but the beloved,
She looked for light in forests on both banks of the river,
May the unbaked pitcher not be harmed in water.
