IN ABSENCE, by AVENZOAR First Line: My chick, my pretty one Last Line: And from my heart to thine. Alternate Author Name(s): Abu Marwun `abd Ad-malik Ibn Abi Al-`ala' Zuhr; Ibn Zuhr | |||
My chick, my pretty one, My little quail, my son: When we had to part I left with him my heart. I yearned so lovingly For him, and he for me: Bitter tears we shed When our farewells were said. Love must aweary grow Of running to and fro From thy heart to mine, And from my heart to thine. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE MARRIAGE OF HEAVEN AND HELL by WILLIAM BLAKE TOMMY'S DEAD by SYDNEY THOMPSON DOBELL THE HUNTING OF THE SNARK: FIT 3.
