June Question - "A Thousand Splendid Suns"

The phrase “a thousand splendid suns", from the poem by Saib-e-Tabrizi, is quoted twice in the novel - once as Laila's family prepares to leave Kabul, and again when she decides to return there from Pakistan.  It is also echoed in one of the final lines: “Miriam is in Laila's own heart, where she shines with the bursting radiance of a thousand suns."  What is the thematic significance of this phrase?
