And thus thy charms in brightness rise:\n \u00a0\u00a0When Wit and Pleasure round thee play;\n When Mirth sits smiling in thine eyes,\n \u00a0\u00a0Who but admires their sprightly ray? But when through Pity's flood they gleam,\n \u00a0\u00a0Who but must love their softened beam?","tags":[],"text":null,"title":"Arabian Poetry: Shorter Pieces of Arabian Poetry: To a Lady Weeping, by Ebn Alrumi","tradition":"Texts of Islam","translated_text":null,"word_count":72}
