Egypt

Maybe her name is Laila?.. maybe she’s waiting for her Majnoun?..
Ahmad Shawqi is the only poet in the Arab literary tradition who was granted the title
of " Amir al- Sho’araa’, literally the ‘Prince of Poets
One of his works,the play "Majnoun Laila", or " Laila’s Love Lunatic" says at some verses..

Men turn as they pray to the holy place;
To Laila’s home I turn my face.
Twice people say their prayers at dawn;
When I think of her’
I know not the times I repeat my own,
Laila hid behind a crowd;
Her lip betrayed a smile,
Like the break of morn,
Or the sun as it shone.
