POEMS OF MAJNUN... FOR AND ABOUT HIS LAYLA

Nice to read and feel the emotions of majnun for his layla

The original virgin-love story, with especial poignancy preserved. Qays' romantic poems are as descriptive as the passage of frosty water through bowels that have, for several days, traversed and survived the treachery of the desert with an empty waterskin. Like all other virgin-loves on record, fictional or real, it speaks just as tellingly on the tragedy and agony endured - or as Qays would put it, the fierce grip of his heart by the talons of a bird - as it does, so elegantly, about a lover of whom there could exist no substitute. It is the duality, or, should I say duplicity, of the malignant love stock with the love-struck, stuck.In this book, it is fair to say the pages of time have reunited the spirits of Laila and Qays.
