“Someone put
You on a slave block
And the unreal bought
You
Now I keep coming to your owner
Saying,
‘This one is mine.’
You often overhear us talking
And this can make your heart leap
With excitement.
Don’t worry,
I will not let sadness
Possess you.
I will gladly borrow all the gold
I need
To get you
Back.”
-Hafiz
