When Night Falls

Wallada bint al-Mustakfi
Arab Andalusian
1001 – 1091

 

When night falls, plan to visit me.
For I believe night is the time that keeps secrets best.
I feel a love for you that if the light of heaven felt, the sun would not shine,
nor the moon rise, nor the stars begin their nightly journey.
