Sometimes my warm conversation was the delight of the gathering, and sometimes my absence disturbed everyone.

This couplet captures the paradox of the beloved's (or the poet's) presence. The poet suggests that his warm conversation (गर्म-गुफ़्तारी) was once the great treasure and wealth of the gathering. Yet, the same poet argues that his mere existence or being (कम-आमेज़ी) was enough to disturb and trouble everyone! It speaks to a life of contradictory impact—being both the center of light and the source of deep unrest.
