In these lines, we can understand at a superficial level what Kabir is asking the swan. We see that Kabir asks the swan about its origin. He wants to know where the swan comes from and what it seeks.

However, there is another level in which we can read this story. It seems like Kabir is also trying to talk to God in this poem. He wants to learn about God and heaven, and he wants to extract this information from the swan. He asks the swan where Heaven is, and what it is like.

Answer:

Kabir is a poet who is really well-know by the theme of all his work, which refers to God in general words, he talks about the soul and spirituality without getting involved in any specific religion since he doubts about the veracity of all of them to portray what God means. Therefore the poem “Tell me, O Swan, your ancient tale” is asking about the soul, peace, and faith of a place called heaven, where is it? and how can you get there? he is questioning the eternal questions that most people have had al least once about heaven and celestial paradise.

Explanation:

Kabir has several poems that go around the same topic, they are characterized for being short and precise, with a few lines he expresses his mind about God, he also questions the sense of owing and connection with the soul and ourselves, he believes that God could not be named, conceptualized or understood.
