Inside there's a nomad who wearily wanders
A barren expanse of still thirsting for more
He delves into the depths of the deserts he ponders
To count every grain on his sands of time shore
Yet his grasp on reality's setting sun squanders
All hope to make Edens of his rotten core
β€œToo great is the grief of this world, and I have only one heart bud. How can I pour all the desert’s sand into an hourglass?
-Emperor Aurangzeb (1618-1707)
