In Chapter 44, Poem 47 of Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the poet explores the enduring nature of grief and the symbolic use of wine as a remedy. The poem suggests that despite the heart's accumulated experience, it still harbors the 'dust' of sorrow. The speaker asks for red wine to be poured upon the 'paleness of the sun,' indicating that even the sun suffers from a pervasive cosmic pain. The contrast between the vitalizing red wine and the ailing pale sun highlights the attempt to alleviate profound melancholy through spiritual intoxication.
