Majnun & Laila

Majnun (مجنون – literally: madman) said the following lines of poetry:

“I walk past the houses, the house of Laila;
I kiss this wall and that wall;
it is not the love of the houses that has filled my heart,
but the love of the one who dwells in these houses.”

أمر على الديار ديار ليلى
أقبل ذا الجدار وذا الجدارِ
وما حب الديار شغفن قلبي
ولكن حب من سكن الديار

May God protect us against جنون (madness) lol
