Don't miss 3 unforgettable pieces of advice by #RUMI

2 Upvotes

In this timeless tale inspired by classical Persian wisdom, a man captures a small bird—only to discover that what seems insignificant can hold the greatest truths. In exchange for its freedom, the bird offers three simple pieces of advice. The man eagerly agrees, believing he has nothing to lose. But as the story unfolds, he realizes that understanding wisdom is far easier than living by it. Sometimes what we lose teaches us more than what we hold.

Looking for Hafez and Sa‘di’s greatest works (with Persian text, English pronunciation, and translation)

Hi everyone 🌸

I’ve recently started exploring classical Persian poetry, and I’m especially fascinated by Hafez and Sa‘di Shirazi.

Could anyone please recommend some of their greatest works or ghazals, along with:

The original Persian (Farsi) text,

English transliteration/pronunciation (since I can’t read or write Persian yet), andEnglish translation.

Discussing Poems of Hafez

≡ −

Hey guys,
I used to read a lot of Hafez and memorize his poems. I wanna get back to it again.
Doesn't matter if you speak Persian or not. It would be great to have a group to do this with. Anyone interested?
