In Chapter 29, Poem 56 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the speaker illustrates the agonizing and exhausting nature of spiritual separation. Using metaphors of relentless physical exertion—running and flying in every direction—the poem emphasizes the desperate search for the Beloved. The vastness of the lover's grief is further highlighted by the claim that recounting the suffering experienced during this absence requires an expanse of time equal to the Day of Resurrection, framing the sorrow of separation as nearly infinite.
