About this eBook

An exploration and selection of the poetry of one of Persia's most influential poets.

From The Houri and the Poet

From the spark I seek star, from the star a sun: For if I stop, I die

When I get up, having quaffed

A cup of wine brewed by one spring breeze, Longing for yet another spring. I seek the end of that which hs no end --

With a restless eye, with a hopeful heart.

The lover's heart dies in an eternal heaven --

I it no cry of a soul in affliction

no sorrow, and no one to drive away sorrow
