Imru' al-Qais's talk with a dead woman

Показать описание
Planning to regain his father's lost kingdom, Imru' al-Qais traveled to the Caesar, and asked him for help.
The Caeser provided him with an army full of princes to lead, and during his way back to Arabia, an enemy of Imru' al-Qais called Attamah reached the Caesar and told him that Imru' al-Qais was having an affair with the Caeser's daughter and that he is used to brag about that in his poetry defaming the emperor in the Arabia.
The Caeser decided to assassinate Imru' al-Qais for this, sent him a poisoned gold-flicked robe as a gift, and wrote to him: "For your honor, I've sent you the robe that I used to wear. So wear it, and write to me with your news from every dwelling-place you pass by."
Imru' al-Qais was so happy with the gift and wore it shortly before he realized he was betrayed, poison spread to his body and his skin started to fall off his flesh, and then he passed by a grave of a dead woman in Ankara, he stood by the grave and recited this poem. It was the second last piece of poetry he ever recited.
