In Poem 40 of Chapter 31 in Attar's Mokhtar Nameh, the speaker laments the loss of tranquility and the agonizing realization that union with the Divine or the Beloved is unattainable. Despite waiting a lifetime in hope of this union, the seeker is left empty-handed. This concept highlights the intense suffering, the shedding of earthly hopes, and the profound sorrow of separation that characterize the mystical path in Sufi literature.
