In my prayers, I want to say: Lord, donโt be far from me, and also donโt come too close. Let me contemplate the stars on the texture of your cloth, but donโt unveil your face to me. Allow me to hear the rivers that you send running, but Lord! Lord! Donโt allow me hearing your voice
Amin MaaloufLet your tears roll tonight, but tomorrow you will start the battle again. What defeats us, always, is just our own sorrow.
