ROSE GARDEN OF MYSTERY: SHABISTARI SELECTED POEMS: MANSUR HALLAJ (Large Print & Large Format Edition) Translation & Introduction Paul Smith The Rose Garden of Mystery was composed as a 1000 couplet long masnavi poem in the form of questions and answers on spiritual matters by Shabistari of Tabriz in 1317 at the request of his Spiritual Master. Since then it has been regarded as one of the finest books on Sufism. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept in this complete, modern translation and the power and meaning of this deep mystical, poem. He mentions the Perfect Master, poet & martyr Hallaj (died 919), was tortured and executed in Baghdad for declaring: I am the Truth (Anal Haq). Much has been written about his famous (and in¬famous) statement, but few of his powerful, often mysteries and always deeply conscious and spiritual poems in Arabic have been translated before from his Diwan into English, and in the poetic forms in which they were composed. Large Print 18pt., & Large Format Edition. 425 pages. Paul Smith (b.1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets from the Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages including Hafez, Hali, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan Khatun, Obeyd Zakani, Mu'in, Amir Khusrau, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Omar Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Lalla Ded, Rahman Baba, Baba Latif, Iqbal, Seemab, Huma, Nazir and others, and his own poetry, fiction, plays, biographies and 12 screenplays. amazon.com/author/smithpa
