Book excerpt: Written from the ninth to the twentieth century, these poems represent the peak of Islamic Mystical writing, from Rabia Basri to Mian Mohammad Baksh. Reflecting both private devotional love and the attempt to attain union with God and become absorbed into the Divine, many poems in this edition are imbued with the symbols and metaphors that develop many of the central ideas of Sufism: the Lover, the Beloved, the Wine, and the Tavern; while others are more personal and echo the poet's battle to leave earthly love behind. These translations capture the passion of the original poetry and are accompanied by an introduction on Sufism and the common themes apparent in the works. This edition also includes suggested further reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE GHAZAL IN ARABIC POETRY An Anthology Translation & Introduction Paul Smith Some scholars see the ghazal as coming from Arabic poetry, especially the prelude to longer poems, i.e. the qasida: they say that this prelude was isolated and changed, to eventually become the ghazal. The Arabic root of the word ghazal is gazl which means: spinning, spun, thread, twist... the form of the ghazal is a spiral. Hazrat Ali's ghazal in this volume seems to confirm that it was originally of Arabic creation. Whatever the origin, by the fifteenth century the ghazal had become a mature form of poetry. Introduction includes... Classical Arabic Poetry, The Ghazal in Arabic Poetry. Included with each selection of a particular poet is a biography plus a list of further reading. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept as well as the power and meaning of these beautiful, often mystical poems. THE POETS...
