“Thus many a melody passed to and fro between the two nightingales, drunk with their passion.

“But who can hide a heart when it's on fire?
It was as if his heart's blood rose around him
Until it rose above his head and drowned him.
He grieved for her who could relieve his grief
And in whose absence grief found no relief;”

“Though parted our two loving souls combine,
For mine is all your own and yours is mine.
Two riddles to the world we represent,
One answer each the other's deep lament.
But if our parting severs us in two,
One radiant light envelops me and you,
As from another world - though blocked and barred
What there is one, down here is forced apart.
Yet if despairing bodies separate,
Souls freely wander and communicate.”
― Layla and Majnun
For mine is all your own and yours is mine.
Two riddles to the world we represent,
One answer each the other's deep lament.
But if our parting severs us in two,
One radiant light envelops me and you,
As from another world - though blocked and barred
What there is one, down here is forced apart.
Yet if despairing bodies separate,
Souls freely wander and communicate.”
― Layla and Majnun
“What is a human life after all? Whether it endures for a brief spell or longer - even if it could last a thousand years; take it as a breath of air merging into eternity. From the beginning, life bears death's signature; they are brothers in the secret play of their eyes. For how long then do you want to deceive yourself? For how long will you refuse to see yourself as you are and as you will be? Each grain of sand takes its own length and breadth as the measure of the world; yet, beside a mountain range it is as nothing. You yourself are the grain of sand; you are your own prisoner. Break your cage, break free from yourself, free from humanity; learn that what you thought was real is not so in reality. Follow Nizami: burn your own treasure, like a candle - then the world, your sovereign, will become your slave.”

“And it is right that heart be yours, since my
Poor heart is broken and expects to die.”
― Layla and Majnun
Poor heart is broken and expects to die.”
― Layla and Majnun
“Better no words at all than words that mean
Things that are evil, noxious, and unclean”
― Layla and Majnun
Things that are evil, noxious, and unclean”
― Layla and Majnun
“Take life for what it is, the world is pain,
You're part of it, it's pointless to complain.”
― Layla and Majnun
You're part of it, it's pointless to complain.”
― Layla and Majnun
“You've filled my heart with grief, and there's no space
Remaining to be shamed by my disgrace.”
― Layla and Majnun
Remaining to be shamed by my disgrace.”
― Layla and Majnun
“Your cruelty takes away my wish to live,
Your beauty tells me that I must forgive”

“When longing eyes tell tales, how can there be
A story that stays veiled in secrecy?”

“With feigned indifference they tried hard to hide
The naked passion that they felt inside”

“Her mouth was just like sugar, you might say,
If sugar routed armies in this way.”

“My heart is bound by beauty鈥檚 spell.
My love is indestructible.
Although I like a candle burn,
And almost to a shadow turn,
I envy not the heart that鈥檚 free:
Love鈥檚 soul-encircling chains for me.”

“What do you know who have no notion of my grief? Away with you, make room! Do not look at me; I am not where you believe me to be. I am lost, even to myself! One does not address people like me! You torture and oppress me. How much longer? Leave me alone in my unhappiness.”
