If the curtain and the veil do not hold the same meaning, the sight cannot capture the stability of the heavens.

Mir Taqi Mir reminds us that outward appearances are often misleading. The couplet suggests that the superficial veil (dar-pardah) and the physical form (surat) cannot possibly contain the eternal, steady truth of the cosmos. The true reality, the 'sabaat' of the heavens, is infinitely deeper than what our eyes can perceive. It's a profound meditation on the gap between appearance and essence.
