quatrain 1141
From Sunlight, two more versions of quatrain 1141, to add to the Houshmand version discussed at the best joy.
I can't let you know
all the secrets
I can't open to you
all the doors
there is something inside
that makes me happy
but I can't put my finger
on its source
Translation by Nader Khalili
The secrets are bursting inside me
but to give them away and
expose them to mockery, I cannot.
Something inside me is bursting with joy
but to put my finger on it, I cannot.
Translation by Azima Melita Kolin and Maryam Mafi
