O Night

Al-Husari al-Qayrawani was a Quran teacher and scholar of the Arabic language from al-Qayrawan in Tunisia. He lived a hard life, he lost his sight at a young age, his child died, his wife left him with another man, lived the crises of the Banu Hilal war, and had to leave his home after the city was destroyed. He composed many poems of elegy for both his son and home. However, this didn't prevent him from having a good spirit and a great sense of humor sometimes in his poetry. And he would say about himself: "I'm a gold bullion that endured much pain inside the fire to reach this state of fineness." He produced a great collection of genius romance poems, including his most famous one in the video, in addition to praise and satire poetry regarding the Andalusian kings during The Kings of the Sects era. It's said that he had become too popular that the kings of Andalusia were competing for his praising.
