Ecstatic Beauty
When I think of Rumi, I can't help but think of Hafiz. (Ok, all the mystical poets always flow together in my mind.) Hafiz's poems make me happy to be alive. Here is one from The Gift
, a book of Hafiz's poetry translated by Daniel Ladinsky from the Penguin Group, copyrighted in 1999 by the translator.
Laughing At the Word Two
Only
That Illumined
One
Who keeps
Seducing the formless into form
Had the charm to win my
Heart.
Only a Perfect One
Who is always
Laughing at the word
Two
Can make you know
Of
Love.



Cheers for the info. It was a good read.
