The love story between Majnun (قیس) and Layla (ليلى) is so heart-drenching.

He thought her henna-coloured hands meant she had celebrated their separation, but in reality they were stained red from wiping the “blood” she wept in grief after their parting.

Persian saying:

“A soft neck cannot be cut (removed) by a sword” (gardan-e narm râ shamshir namiborad, گردن نرم را شمشیر نمیبرد).

A mí mismo me prohibo
revelar nuestro secreto
decir tu nombre completo
o escribirlo cuando escribo.
Prisionero de ti, vivo
buscándote en la sombría
caverna de mi agonía.
