Even though you wish to please the rivals, meetings between lovers do not come to an end over such excuses.
In this couplet, the lover speaks with gentle confidence and a touch of sweet complaint. Even if the beloved tries to appease rivals or social circles by pulling away, the lover teasingly asks if genuine intimacy could ever be stopped by such hollow excuses. It beautifully captures that unshakable faith in love, where the bond between two souls effortlessly outshines the pretenses and politics of the outside world.
