The Light of Yusef
Yousef’s body thrown into a well
Zulaikha’s heart thrown into a bottomless well named Love
Yusef a Prophet
Zulaikha a plain mortal
Yusef was jailed
Zulaikha was blamed
His crime; innocence
Her crime; Love
“I fell in love with light
Through Yusef, I saw Habib and through Habib I saw Him
This light took over my being
My heart melted
My body reacted
Today they perceive me as a sinner
Tomorrow I shall be with the lovers
For I await the day where the promise to be with those we love shall be fulfilled.”
