Laila Al Amriya
In a desert tribe, Qais falls in love with Layla and recites poems about her. His story is popular in the tribe, but this is against tradition. Another person competes with the lover to ask for Layla Al-Amiriya’s hand and proposes to her. The father agrees. Layla marries against her will, falls ill, and the lover recites poems about his lost love.
