You arrived late, O intoxicated beloved, Ghazal 41 by Saadi
Description: This ghazal captures Saadi's profound surrender to love and beauty. The poet addresses a beloved who arrives late but holds such charm that their presence overwhelms any grievance. Saadi illustrates the inescapable pull of love, comparing it to a fish trapped in a net. He reflects on how the allure of beauty has led even the devout astray. The beloved’s beauty and grace are likened to a tall cypress, unmatched by anything in nature. Saadi laments his helplessness, expressing both the pain and inevitability of devotion, and concludes with a rhetorical question that underlines the exclusivity of his dedication.
