In Chapter 15, Poem 23 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet expresses the immense and almost infectious weight of his internal pain. He asserts that anyone who hears even a single word from him becomes burdened with "a hundred thousand sorrows." The second couplet emphasizes his profound isolation by questioning where one might find a listener capable of enduring even an hour of his bitter weeping and heartfelt pain. This reflects a key mystical and literary theme: the incommunicable magnitude of spiritual suffering and the extreme rarity of a true confidant who has the spiritual capacity to bear the weight of such profound grief.
