Poetry from Elmaya Jabbarova

White woman with long black hair and a black blouse with flowers on it.
Elmaya Jabbarova
Labyrinth of love
 
As a hard-to-solve theorem, 
As the unknown of a mathematical formula, 
You have conquered my heart, 
I've been like a mad wanderer. 

If the clouds collide and lightning strikes, 
If a loving heart looks at the sky, 
If lightning wears a ring around his neck, 
Like a current of emotions. 

Love is an illusion, invisible to the eye, 
The bridge of love cannot be woven with rope, 
The word I love cannot be said in words, 
The secret is not known like pyramids. 

Happiness, you are a mysterious blessing, 
You are a name that cannot be appreciated, 
Sometimes you are destined to not love, 
As an unwanted gift. 

When it's enough, everyone becomes a king. 
By banishing longing, he becomes a king. 
Only when he sees us, act as 'Nadir shah' 
He does not remember like the misers.
