O one living in luxury and comfort, you ought to veil your face from us; for we constantly heave sighs, and your face is delicate and bright like a mirror.

In classical Urdu poetry, it is believed that a warm, passionate sigh ('dam') fogs and tarnishes the brilliant clarity of a mirror. Here, the lover teasingly warns their delicate beloved—accustomed to a life of pampered luxury—to veil their face because it is radiant and smooth like a mirror ('aaina-seema'). Since the lover is constantly heaving burning sighs of longing, they fear their breath might cloud that spotless beauty. Far from asking them to turn away, this is actually an exquisite, playful compliment on the beloved's sheer delicacy.
