જલમેં બસે કુમુદની, ચંદા બસે આકાશ; જો જાકે હીરદે બસે, વહી તીનકે પાસ.

jalamēṁ basē kumudanī, caṁdā basē ākāśa; jō jākē hīradē basē, vahī tīnakē pāsa.

Literally: The water-lily dwells in the water, the moon dwells in the sky; but whoever dwells in one's heart is always close to them.
What it means: Physical distance matters not in true love, as those who hold a place in our hearts are always close to us.
