How long will you keep hiding your face from me, considering you have a habit of displaying yourself?

The poet playfully teases the beloved who is attempting to stay hidden behind a veil, asking how long such modesty can really last. True beauty has an inherent urge to be seen and admired, making it impossible for the beloved to stay hidden forever. At a mystical level, this also reflects the divine nature of God, whose ultimate beauty naturally yearns to manifest throughout the universe.
