Thank You, God For Bring You to Me

Some or even many of you may be familiar with the song "Sultan-e-Ghalbha" (Ruler of the Hearts), which was from a movie of the same name. But you may not know that the movie featured several versions of the song--same music but very different lyrics.

My favorite version is a duet that, at its end, describes the sentiments of along-separated couple who is finally reunited.

I will die for God
Whose Kindness brings the hearts together.
His Compassion solves the problems.
Thank You, God!

What's past is passed.
Troubles are part of the games of Destiny
Thank You, God
for is now Heaven
Our house.

What's past is passed, Come
Come, Let's say Thank You, God.
That He brought together our hearts.
Thank You, God

If, for a day, this Sky
Is Unkind to me and you
Today, there is no trace of sighs
Thank you, God.

From Aref & Ahdiyeh's Duet at closing credits of Ruler of the Hearts (Soltan-e-Ghalbha)

If Only Your Eyes Say 'Yes'

What romantic/heroic things would you be willing do to express your joy of winning her heart, if only she said 'yes'?

Here are some suggestions, from one man who lists what he would do "If Only Your Eyes Say 'Yes' ":

• Put the mountain on his shoulder
• Fight in any war
• Take the wave from the sea
• Sap the rocks
• Bring the moon to her house
• Take target practice at the wind
• Count every particle of soil on earth
• Cut the stars of the skies and put them next to her eyes
• replace the 'eyes' of the moon with pictures of her eyes
• Remove the Sun, build a door for her eyes, and then put a mirror in front of her eyes (the idea being that in presence of her eyes, there would be no need for the sun).

Impossible, you say? Nonsense, says the man in love. "None of this would be any effort all, if your eyes say 'yes'.
