There is this arabic quote from a book which translates as:

-Forever?

=What?

-Will you love me forever?

=Until stars burn and worlds end Until planets collapse and suns wilt And until the moon dims and the seas and the rivers dry out Until I age that my memories fade Until my tongue fails at pronouncing your name Until my heart beats for the last time Maybe then I will stop. Maybe.

And it makes me go absolutely FARRELL!

Until my heart beats for the last time,

only then, perhaps, I would stop loving you.

Perhaps.
