balaghal 'ulaa bi kamaalihii
kashafaddujaa bi jamaalihii
hasanat jami'u hisaalihii
sallu 'alayhi wa aalihii
-----Shaykh Sa'di Shirazi
The wall has grown all black, upto the circling roof. Roads are empty, travellers all gone. Once again My night begins to converse with its loneliness; My visitor I feel has come once again. Henna stains one palm, blood wets another; One eye poisons, the other cures. - Faiz Ahmed Faiz
