Here are more of the thrilling verses of the thirteenth-century Sufi saint, in translations that combine unsurpassed beauty and accuracy—presented in an heirloom-worthy gift edition, with full-cloth cover, sewn binding, and ribbon marker. Helminski and Rezwani’s translations stand out not only for their poetic beauty, but for their faithfulness to the Persian originals (a rare thing among English versions of Rumi), and for the theme around which they are focused: the ripening, or spiritual maturing, of the soul as it grows in love toward God and others.
