When he is not coming to her to shower his mercy, why is she striving like this? This will be clear only when one goes to thiruvEngadam and sees emperumAn, when one would realise the affection that he has for her and how he is not even sleeping, thinking of her.

Since men, who have beards on their chins, do not understand the agonies experienced by women, who have bosoms, it has to be explicitly told.
