Though I Am Laila of The Persian Romance |
Though I am Laila of the Persian romance,
my heart loves like ferocious Majnun.
I want to go to the desert
but modesty is chains on my feet.
A nightingale came to the flower garden
because she was my pupil.
I am an expert in things of love.
Even the moth is my disciple. .....Though I Am Laila of The Persian Romance by Princess Zeb-un-Nissa (tr. Willis Barnstone)
