A New Path

بیاتاگل برافشانیم ومی درساغرا‌نداز‌یم

فلک راسقف بشکافیم و طرحی نو دراندازیم

Rose petals let us scatter
and fill the cup with red wine.

The firmaments let us shatter
and come with a new design.

--Hafez, The Nightingale of Shiraz
(1310-1379)

In the End

Out beyond ideas of
Right doing and wrong doing,

There is a field
I'll meet you there.

--Rumi of Persia (1207—1273)

Spirit of Humanity

بنى آدم اعضاء يکديگرند که در آفرينش ز يک گوهرند

چو عضوى بدرد آورد روزگار دگر عضوها را نماند قرار

Of one Essence is the human race
thus has Creation put the base,

One Limb impacted is sufficient
For all Others to feel the Mace.

--Saadi of Persia (1184-1283)
Inscribed on the UN's Hall of Nations
