what ails thee ...

"O thou grave, to thee I resort for paying homage to thee.
O thou, the repository of my beloved, thou answer me not.
O thou beloved tomb, what ails thee-
Thou respondeth not to my supplications.
Art thou of humor, because of the love that I bear thee?"
Imam Ali r.a.


One of the many verses by Imam Ali for his honorable wife.
Book of Character by Camille Helminski
