From whose sight, like Joseph's, I departed, what can I divine? Do not ask about the truth of Pir-e-Kanwan's insight.

This couplet speaks to the unbearable depth of emotional loss. Mir Taqi Mir uses the story of Yusuf (Joseph) to illustrate a profound separation—a loss so great that the person is rendered incapable of understanding any truth, no matter how profound. The second line suggests that when the heart is broken by such intense pain, even the greatest wisdom or insight (like that of a spiritual master) becomes meaningless. It's a lament for a pain that transcends intellect.
