You have gotten so furious over an accurate and truthful remark; why have you become so exasperated, did what I said hurt you that much?
There is a delightful, teasing spark in this couplet where the speaker playfully ribs their beloved for losing their temper. The idiom 'patte ki baat' means hitting the nail right on the head—speaking a truth so precise that it disarms defenses. Seeing their companion suddenly exasperated, the poet asks with mischievous innocence if the remark struck a little too close to home.
