Narration In Favor Of Books The Love Poems of Rumi
Born Jalal ad-Din Mohammed Balkhi in Persia early in the thirteenth century, the poet known as Rumi expressed the deepest feelings of the heart through his poetry. This volume consists of new translations 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. 'These poems reflect the deepest longings of the human heart as it searches for the divine. They celebrate love. Each poetic whisper is urgent, expressing the desire that penetrates human relationships and inspires intimacy with the self, silently nurturing an affinity for the Beloved. Both Fereydoun Kia, the translator, and I hope that you will share the experience of ravishing ecstasy that the poems of Rumi evoked in us. In this volume we have sought to capture in English the dreams, wishes, hopes, desires, and feelings of a Persian poet who continues to amaze, bewilder, confound, and teach, one thousand years after he walked on this earth' - Deepak Chopra

I wish I knew what love like this felt like but I have yet to find it. In the words of Rumi I am currently "reading the myths of love" and someday I hope to become a "mythical lover." My favorite poems are Lost in the Wilderness, Looking for your Face, Looking for Love, I Am Yours, Do you love me?, The Agony of Lovers, and I Am and Am Not. "I long to escape the prison of my ego and lose myself in the mountains and desert."I was introduced to Rumi in a Middle Eastern Literature class in college. Like so many before me, I fell in love with his passionate, intense, and spiritual poetry. This little book is a must for all romantics, poets, and dreamers. It might just even convert a few cynics out there, too.
Lovely little book of poems that my husband bought for me for christmas. All together now.... Awwwwww....!

I think Rumi's poetry is unsurpassed in its mysticism and beauty."In your light I learn how to love.In your beauty, how to make poems.""You dance inside my chest,where no one sees you,""but sometimes I do, and thatsight becomes this art." pg 62When my husband and I were first dating, we lived in different parts of the country. This was one of the books he sent when he found out that I loved poetry. He bought himself a copy too and we read it together- separately. Then we talked about it on the
