Hla Stavhana

Famous quotes containing the words hla stavhana and/or stavhana:

    Separation’s fire
    can be borne
    when there’s a knot of hope,
    but Mother,
    when my love leaves home
    and stays in the same village,
    it’s far worse than death.
    Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)

    Now without him,
    I remember all the pleasures tasted.
    The rumble of new clouds
    sounds like an executioner’s drum.
    —Hla Stavhana (c. 50 A.D.)
