Poetic Verses on Self-Confidence

• The poet Al-Mutanabbi expresses in his poem “Oh, the anguish of the heart from one whose heart burns”:

Ah, the anguish of the heart from one whose heart burns

And from the condition of my body in your presence, I suffer

What do I have to conceal a love that has stung my flesh

While you claim the love of the sword of the state, O mighty one?

If love binds us by its charming allure,

Then I wish we could share love in equal measure.

I visited him and the swords of India remained sheathed,

And I gazed at him with swords drawn.

He was the most beautiful of all in creation;

In him was the best quality of the most excellent qualities.

The victory of the enemy whom you intend to conquer

Is veiled with sorrow, but within it are blessings.

Fear was your substitute, and majesty was crafted for you

That which cannot be constructed is indeed a shock.

You have committed yourself to something that does not bind you

That no ground or flag could hide them.

Every time you aimed at an army, it turned back in flight,

So had your ambition not faltered when it was achieved?

Upon you, they fall in every encounter,

And it is no shame upon you if they are defeated.

Do you not see the sweet victory is only victory,

When the white swords of India and the remnants extended their hands?

You, the most just of all people unless in my treatment;

In you is the dispute, and you are the defendant and judge.

I seek protection from your sincere glances,

That you mistake flesh for something fattened by rot.

And what use is a brother of this world if he doesn’t share

While both lights and shadows exist together?

Thus, the assembly will know from whom we share our gathering,

That I am the best among those whose feet take strides.

I am the one whom the blind have looked upon and regarded my manners,

And my words have been heard by those who are deaf.

All the while, I sleep with my eyes closed,

Yet others stay awake because of my words and dispute.

And with an ignorant one whose ignorance brings me laughter,

Until a decisive hand strikes, and a mouth speaks.

When you see the lion’s teeth exposed,

Do not think that the lion smiles.

Once I met, as I sought solace in the heart’s pain,

A pure horse, with its back as sanctuary.

Its legs swift and legs ready,

With every step forward, I came to assist the fight.

When I charged amidst the throngs of death engulfing me,

The horse, the night, and the wilderness know my name,

Along with the sword, spear, parchment, and pen.

In the wild, I roamed alone,

Until those in the deserted lands were astounded by my presence.

O how much it pains us to part from them,

For all we cherish is lost in their absence.

We are not unintelligent to belittle these things; if your deeds,

Then surely your affairs of honor are fleeting when you gather.

If it brings you comfort, what harm can a wound do,

When between us lies a mutual connection?

Knowledge is afforded only to those on the paths of wisdom.

How often do you seek out our faults, but they evade you,

While Allah detests what you pursue, and may generosity answer?

How far removed is blemish and deficiency from my honor,

I am the morning star, and those grayed with age.

May the clouds that hover overhead with their storms,

Move toward those who share their rain.

See how the new stage dictates that every phase,

Could bear a resemblance to the painted gory facade.

If abandoning detached our whispers from delight,

That would bring to mind those whom I bade farewell.

In journeys, you will discover among those who loath parting,

That bitter lands are worse than solitude.

And the duplicitous is the harm of humanity,

While the hunter finds solace in their haste.

Shun the impetuous, and mirror me well for the better.

Be aware of the words of poets when life encounters contentions,

Let your heart admire what it cannot reach, but take it beyond.
