Answer:
he poet says that sometimes the eye of heaven i.e. the sun shines too hot i.e. the summer’s day is often very hot and unbearable which makes it undesirable.
Sometimes his (sun’s) gold complexion is dimmed. The poet uses personification in this sentence as he describes the sun by the word his. For him, the sun is like a human. Note that in the previous line, he calls the sun the eye of heaven which is again personification. Heaven here means sky.
Coming back to the 6th line, the poet says that sometimes, the sunlight of the sun becomes dimmed (during evening time) which also takes away its beauty.
