Gibran Khalil Gibran was born on January 6, 1883 in the lightest of north Lebanon and died on April 10, 1931 in New York.He descended from a Maronite family, an Assyrian of Christian. Since his family was poor, he received an education from priests who visited him to teach him from the Bible and the Syriac and Arabic languages.
His mother followed his uncle, and immigrated to the USA on June 25, 1895, while his father decided to stay in Lebanon although he had nothing since the Ottoman authorities confiscated his family's property.

Gibran Khalil Gibran travelled to Paris in 1908 to study art for two years. The excited travelling and endeavours and sights motivated him towards his other kinds of works though most of his first writing was in Arabic.
