Funnily enough a lot of what he wrote was originally written in English and I find their Arabic translations lacking. Funny how languages work.

I’d recommend reading Gibran’s Nymphs of the Valley if you haven’t yet. As well as The Prophet if you enjoy poetry.

That’s the main reason I’ve never done more than passively read any of his stuff. Just what I run across in the wild. I know how hard translating poetry is, and how impossible some things are too make work and keep sitting anything resembling the meaning and depth.
