Ever since your manner of showing attention and favor ceased, I too have changed the way I experience and express my sorrow.

There is a quiet dignity blended with heartbreak in this couplet. The poet suggests that love is a delicate exchange; once the beloved withdrew their tender attention and warmth ('tarz-e-iltifaat'), the lover refused to weep like before. Instead, they transformed the very manner of their grieving ('waz-e-gham'), choosing to hold their sorrow with silent grace and self-respect rather than overt lamentation.
