Farsi Fridays: March 24, 2023

Though it is now translated in to hundreds of languages, Rumi’s original work was written in Farsi – including his famous Mathnawi. Each Friday we send out a word or phrase, in Farsi, that can be found in Rumi’s work. You can listen to the pronunciation and learn the meaning of Farsi words that often appear in Rumi's poetry.

Farsi Fridays is an opportunity to learn Rumi's language and better understand his wisdoms.


The precious essence of who we are in the journey of life - buried deep near the start of our days. We need to embark on the journey away from our origin in order to mature and find that the treasure was right where we started all along!
— Fariba Enteshari
