With what agony did my beloved break away from my embrace; O God, was that their departure, or the departure of my very heart?

This couplet captures the raw, physical shock of sudden parting, where the beloved tears away from an embrace with desperate restlessness. The poet plays profoundly on the word 'jaana' (to depart), asking in bewilderment whether it was the lover walking away or his very heart being ripped from his chest. Separation here is not a quiet drifting apart, but a sudden, soul-shattering wrench that leaves him entirely hollow.
