It's a fountain of joy
If your love story gives you headaches

Some sleepy sleeping people have to wake up.

Even after my death, Iqbalab will speak every stroke of my blood's blood.

Chains of inhumanness clustered our treasured feet,
Good tidings they preached, to us, roes we weet,
“Static efforts that puzzled fettered minds”, I said,

Summer pleasures they are gone like to visions every one
And the cloudy days of autumn and of winter cometh on
I tried to call them back but unbidden they are gone
Far away from heart and eye and for ever far away

Hunting he loved, but love he laughed to scorn.

One last long sigh to love and thee,
Then back to busy life again.

Again the merchant ploughs the tumid wave;
Another spring renews the soldier's toil,
And finds me vacant in the rural cave.

Not the raw seasons alone, and the homes left behind, but
Also her nature, the urge to fly, and the endless

The Secret People

There is many a free French peasant who is richer and sadder than we.
