Quatrain 9 from Rubaiyat of Rumi
Description: From the unseen darkness of the days
From afar, not having seen the hell of lovers
They claim the checkmate of the beloved's love
What does love have to do with the fortunate ones?
"From the unseen darkness of the days": This line refers to the uncertainties and challenges of life, often seen as a dark and mysterious journey.
From afar, not having seen the hell of lovers": This line alludes to the intense pain and suffering that can accompany love, comparing it to the torments of hell.
They claim the checkmate of the beloved's love": This line suggests that people often boast about their love for someone, claiming to have "checkmated" or conquered that love.
What does love have to do with the fortunate ones?": This line poses a rhetorical question, suggesting that those who are fortunate or successful in life may not truly understand the depths of love and its associated pain.
