Neither does the sorrow of the day of separation remain nor the joy of the night of union; the condition of morning and evening has turned into something entirely different.
This couplet captures a poignant state of emotional exhaustion, where the pendulum of love has finally stopped swinging between the pain of separation and the ecstasy of union. Dawn and dusk, which once carried the vibrant colors of longing and celebration, have now faded into a quiet, unfamiliar haze. It speaks to that surreal phase of life where you become so detached or worn down that neither sorrow nor joy can touch you anymore.
