Mokhtar Nameh, Chapter 46

Chapter 46 (باب چهل و ششم) of Farid al-Din Attar's Mokhtar Nameh is a specific section of the collection consisting of quatrains (rubaiyat). The primary recurring theme in this chapter is addressing the morning or dawn (صبح). In these verses, the poetic voice often pleads with the morning not to break, not to laugh (dawn's light), or not to breathe, aiming either to prolong a night of union with the beloved or to endlessly continue a night of sorrowful weeping.
