Is that you, or a garden cypress swaying as it walks, Ghazal 59 by Saadi
Description: This ghazal by Saadi is a poetic meditation on love’s beauty, longing, and the enduring pain of separation. The poet marvels at the beloved's ethereal qualities, comparing them to heavenly and natural wonders. He speaks of the transformative power of love, where even lifeless walls bear the beloved’s image, and laments the sleepless nights brought by longing. Saadi reminds himself—and the reader—that love has always come with challenges and that enduring them is a testament to devotion. This work is both a celebration of the beloved's allure and a reflection on love's timeless trials.
