Vilka sånger, vilka shower, vilka match.com sidor…kärlek beskrivs bäst av poeterna, hittade det här när jag letade efter lite mera att skriva om om Imam Ali:
Every heart that is not aflame is no heart;
A frozen heart is nothing but a handful of clay. O God! Give me a breast that sets ablaze,
And in that breast a heart, and that heart consumed with fire. (1)
Do you imagine that Majnun became deranged (majnun)
by himself? It was the glance of Layla that transported him among the stars (2)
By love, bitternesses became sweet,
By love, pieces of copper became gold (3)
