Unfortunately, you are not eternal

Once Sulaiman ibn 'Abd al-Malik had put on the most flashy clothes, wear perfume and riding kebanggannya. Then he turned to the mirror and he was amazed by his performance, saying:

"I was a young nan handsome king."

Then he turned to a slave-girl and asked:

"O my slave girl, what do you think penampulan and ketampananku?"

Then the slave woman replied:

"I will answer if you permit, O Commander of the Faithful."

Solomon said "I have let you, then what's your answer?"

Slave woman's poem tells us:

You are a most happy, if thou eternal
It's just that there is no immortality for man
There is no disgrace to you and not also what the hated people
It's just that you are not eternal.

Then Sulaiman ibn 'Abdul Malik fell silent
