Sur la Terre, bariolée, chemine quelqu'un qui n'est ni musulman, ni infidèle, ni riche, ni pauvre. Il ne révère ni Allah, ni les lois. Il ne croit pas à la vérité. Il n'affirme jamais rien. Sur la Terre bariolée, quel est cet homme brave et triste ?

Language: French (Français)
Je ne peux apercevoir le Ciel. J'ai trop de larmes dans les yeux ! Les brasiers de l'Enfer ne sont qu'une infime étincelle, si je les compare aux flammes qui me dévorent. Le Paradis, pour moi, c'est un instant de paix.
