If it were not for the passion of love, he would not have been the buyer of Zeuchessa, the Joseph of Egypt.

This profound couplet speaks to the all-consuming power of love. Mir Taqi Mir suggests that the passion of love (Ishq) was such a monumental 'bargain' or 'deal' that it facilitated an impossible scenario—the acquisition of Zulekha by Joseph. It beautifully implies that when love takes hold, it has the power to change destinies and make the impossible seem inevitable.
