No one catches my eye to say, "They are like him," Ghazal 92 by Saadi
Description: In this ghazal, Saadi Shirazi celebrates the incomparable beauty and charm of the beloved while exploring the overwhelming effects of love. He uses vivid metaphors to contrast the beloved’s divine qualities with the limitations of worldly logic and description. The poem emphasizes the transformative nature of love, where even reason surrenders to the beloved, like Farhad yearning for Shirin. Saadi also reflects on the inability of language to capture the true essence of beauty, suggesting that love is an experience beyond words or measure. The imagery of spinning hearts and flowing streams evokes the depth and motion of devotion, while the ghazal’s tone blends reverence with surrender.
