SynopsisBorn Jalal ad-Din Mohammad Balkhi in Persia early in the thirteenth century, the poet known as Rumi (named after the city where he lived) composed works of mysticism and desire that inspired countless people in his own time and throughout the centuries. His poems expressed the deepest longings of the human heart for its beloved, for that transcendent intimacy which is the source of the divine. This slender, beautiful volume consists of new translations by Farsi scholar Fereydoun Kia, edited by Deepak Chopra to evoke the rich mood and music of Rumi's love poems. Exalted yearning, ravishing ecstasy, and consuming desire emerge from these poems as powerfully today as they did on their creation more than 700 years ago.

  • I hate deepak.. butttttt

    I gave it a try anyway... Considering that it was not his work (Deepak). I read that the majority of the books written in English were translated by someone who wasn't that great so I bought this one.... The poems are simplistic.. A bit repetitive.. I have yet to understand how Rumi influenced so many, still, to this day.. But.. for 4 dollars... It might be worth to own a piece of history... AND... The poems aren't horrible. I have a western tongue and western eyes.. I am used to a much different style.
