This couplet explains that the beauty we perceive in the physical world, even in mere dust, is a small sip from the divine cup of beauty, and it is this trace of divine beauty that draws us to adore it so intensely.
This beyt appears in a section where Rumi is discussing the pervasive nature of divine beauty, which he metaphorically calls a 'draught' (جرعه) from a hidden cup. He posits that this 'sip' of beauty has been 'poured' (بر ریختی) onto the earth and its elements. Even in something as humble as 'dust' (خاک), there is a trace of this divine beauty. The couplet emphasizes that it is this very trace, this 'draught of beauty within the dust,' that compels humanity to adore and 'kiss it with a hundred hearts' (به صد دل روز و شب میبوسیش) day and night. This isn't about literal dust, but about how the divine essence permeates all creation, making even the seemingly mundane objects of the world objects of veneration and love. The 'hundred hearts' signifies the intensity and totality of this love, suggesting that our yearning for beauty in the world is, in essence, a yearning for the Divine origin of that beauty.
