Poem by Rumi
To make a start, here is a charming quatrain
of Mawlana Jalaluddin Rumi
(# 1218 in my edition of the Divan):
Dar bagh shodam sabuh o gol michiam
Vaz didan-e baaghbaan hami tarsidam
Shirin sokhani ze baaghbaan be shenidam
Gol raa cheh mahall keh baagh raa baghshidam
I was in the garden in the morning and I was gathering roses
And all the time I was afraid that the gardener would see me.
The gardener, however, only spoke these kind words:
?A few roses are nothing as I give you the complete garden?
A Variety of Roses
