Quatrain 125 from Rubaiyat of Rumi
Description: English Translation of the Quatrain
Those eyes, filled with blood, have sorrow as their companion,
Don't expect sleep from them, for when have they ever slept?
They think that this too will have an end,
O unaware one of love, who has said this?
Analysis of the Quatrains
The Bloodshot Eyes: The image of bloodshot eyes suggests intense suffering and sleepless nights.
The Perpetual Wakefulness: The lover is depicted as being in a constant state of longing and yearning, unable to find peace or rest.
The Illusion of End: The lover believes that their suffering will eventually end, but the poet suggests that this is a misconception, especially in the realm of love.
