मासि मासि समा ज्योत्स्ना पक्षयोरुभयोरपि
तत्रेकः शुक्लपक्षोSभूद्द्यशः पुण्येरवाप्यते
Maasi maasi samaa jyotsnaa pakshyorubhayorapi
tatrekh shuklapakshobhudyashh punyerawaapyate.
i.e. month after month there is equal light (brightness) in both the fortnights (called Shukla Paksha and Krishna Paksh) of the Moon, but the Shukla Paksha gets all the credit and is considered auspicious.
Maasi = lunar month. Sama = equal. Jyotsnaa = brightness, light. Prakaash = light, brightness.
Shukla Paksha = A lunar month is divided into two fortnights (Paksha) called Shukla Paksha (of weaxing moon) and Krishna Paksha (of waning moon).The night of full Moon is called Poornamasi and the night when moon does not appear is called Amavasya. The fortnight of waxing moon is considered auspicious and Poornamasi is particularly considered more auspicious for religious functions.
Punya =A concept of Hindu Religion, whereby for good deeds one gets plus points which are rewarded by God in many ways. Here it means recognition, adulation and credit
The underlying idea behind this Subhashit is that among persons of equal caliber one gets all the credit and adulation, whereas the other person, who is equally competent, gets ignored. That is why it is said - 'भाग्यम फलति सर्वत्र न च विद्या न च पौरुषम ' (Bhagyam phalati sdarvatra na cha vidyaa na cha paurusham) i.e.destiny rewards and makes a person famous in society and not his erudition and and his sincere efforts)- i.e. destiny (bhagya) is the deciding factor in one's progress and success and his efforts and skills are secondary.
There is couplet in Ramayan by Goswami Tulsi Das having this very thought as under:-
"सम प्रकाश तम पाख दुहूँ नाम भेद विधि कीन्ह , सशि शोषक पोषक समुझी जग जस अपजस दीन्ह "
(Sama praakash tam paakh duhun naam bhed vidhi keenha, Sasi shoshak poshak samujhi jag jas apjas deenha) i.e.there is equal brightness and darkness in both the fortnights of moon, but God has given credit and discredit to them in this World considering the fact that one increases the brightness and the other decreases the brightness.
