	Rumi: A New Translation by Jalaluddin Rumi
	Price : Rs 399.00
	Your Price : Rs 311.22

Marked by lyrical beauty and spiritual insight, a deep understanding of human suffering that coexists with rapturous abandon, the poems of Jalaluddin Rumi continue to be relevant almost eight centuries after they
were composed, with contemporary audiences finding new meanings in them. Rumi`s poems bring together the
divine and the human, the mystical and the corporeal to create a vivid kaleidoscope of poetic images.

While many recent `translations` have sought to give Rumi`s poetry a certain hippy sensibility, robbing it of its true essence, Farrukh Dhondy attempts to bring out the beauty and sensibility of the verses whilst imitating the metre of the original. Dhondy`s translations provide a modern idiom to the poems, carefully keeping intact their religious context.ISBN 9789350290828
