It is merely the influence of our own illusions and doubts that causes us to perceive a veil covering the face of Truth.
In this profound couplet, the poet reflects on how we perceive the Ultimate Reality or Truth (Haqq). We often lament that the Divine remains hidden behind an invisible veil, but the poet gently reminds us that this barrier does not belong to Truth—it is woven entirely from our own doubts, illusions, and limited perceptions. Reality has always been luminous and unmasked before us; it is merely the fog of our own minds that makes it seem concealed.
