Kahlil Gibran

United States writer (born in Lebanon) (1883-1931) Gibran was born in the town of Bsharri in the Mount Lebanon Mutasarrifate, Ottoman Empire (modern day Lebanon), to Khalil Gibran and Kamila Gibran (Rahmeh). As a young man Gibran emigrated with his family to the United States, where he studied art and began his literary career, writing in both English and Arabic. In the Arab world, Gibran is regarded as a literary and political rebel. His romantic style was at the heart of a renaissance in modern Arabic literature, especially prose poetry, breaking away from the classical school. In Lebanon, he is still celebrated as a literary hero. A member of the New York Pen League, he is chiefly known in the English-speaking world for his 1923 book The Prophet, an early example of inspirational fiction including a series of philosophical essays written in poetic English prose. The book sold well despite a cool critical reception, gaining popularity in the 1930s and again especially in the 1960s counterculture. Gibran is the third best-selling poet of all time, behind Shakespeare and Laozi.

    الزواج هو الخاتم الذهبي في السلسلة ، التي تكون بدايتها لمحة وتنتهي نهايتها.

    Die Ehe ist der goldene Ring in einer Kette, deren Anfang ein Blick und deren Ende die Ewigkeit ist.

    le mariage est l'anneau d'or dans une chaîne, dont le début est un regard et dont la fin est l'éternité.

    शादी एक श्रृंखला में सुनहरी अंगूठी है, जिसकी शुरुआत एक झलक है और जिसका अंत अनंत काल है।

    pernikahan adalah cincin emas dalam sebuah rantai, yang awalnya hanya sekilas pandang dan yang akhirnya adalah keabadian.

    il matrimonio è l'anello d'oro in una catena, il cui inizio è uno sguardo e la cui fine è l'eternità.

    結婚は鎖の中の金の指輪であり、その始まりは一見であり、その終わりは永遠です。

    ಮದುವೆಯು ಸರಪಳಿಯಲ್ಲಿನ ಚಿನ್ನದ ಉಂಗುರವಾಗಿದೆ, ಇದರ ಪ್ರಾರಂಭವು ಒಂದು ನೋಟ ಮತ್ತು ಅದರ ಅಂತ್ಯವು ಶಾಶ್ವತತೆ.

    o casamento é o anel de ouro em uma corrente, cujo começo é um olhar e cujo fim é a eternidade.

    திருமணம் என்பது ஒரு சங்கிலியில் உள்ள தங்க மோதிரம், அதன் ஆரம்பம் ஒரு பார்வை மற்றும் அதன் முடிவு நித்தியம்.

    వివాహం అనేది గొలుసులోని బంగారు ఉంగరం, దీని ప్రారంభం ఒక చూపు మరియు దీని ముగింపు శాశ్వతత్వం.

    شادی زنجیر میں سونے کی انگوٹھی ہے ، جس کی شروعات ایک جھلک ہے اور جس کا خاتمہ ہمیشہ کے لئے ہے۔
