The Rubaiyat of Rumi, The Ergin Translations, Volume 1 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781947666078)

Mevl?n? Cel?ledd?n Rumi is considered the foremost mystical Persian poet of Love and is the best-selling poet in the United States. Our four volumes share the 1,867 quatrains from Rumi's Divan-i Kebir, translated by Nevit O. Ergin, the first person ever to translate into English the over 44,000 verses in Rumi's Divan-i Kebir.

Although selections of Ergin's translations of Rumi's quatrains have been published before, this is the first time his translations of all 1,867 rubaiyat will have been published - in English only -in their entirety.

To quote Ergin, "Rumi is like an infinitely large umbrella covering all we have and beyond."
