Description
A celebrated collection of quatrains, this work reflects on the fleeting nature of life, the passage of time, love, fate, mortality, and the search for meaning. With striking imagery drawn from wine, gardens, dawn, and the turning heavens, its verses balance sensual pleasure with philosophical doubt and spiritual questioning. Both intimate and expansive, the poems invite readers to savor the present while contemplating the mysteries that lie beyond human understanding. Their lyrical simplicity and enduring meditations have made the collection a landmark of world literature.
