Full Poem:

In truth, we are all like three butterflies.
In the world of lovers, we are but a fairytale.
The first type of butterfly approached the candle, and said,
"I have now found the meaning of love."
The second type went further
And batted its wings near the flame, saying
"I have burned in the flames of love."
The third one went and tossed its self completely into the fire
Indeed, this was the real meaning of love.

~ Fariduddin Attar of Nishapur
