Rumi

Editorial policy

If my head holds one thought wise and clear, it's you.

Poor as I am, what I hold dear is you.

No matter how I see myself, I'm nothing.

Anything I am entirely is you.

#1690, from Rumi's Kolliyaat-e Shams-e Tabrizi
Edited by Badiozzaman Forouzanfar (Tehran, Amir Kabir, 1988).
