Ibn 'Arabi (1165-1240) A prolific writer, Ibn 'Arabi is generally known as the prime exponent of the idea later known as the 'Unity of Being'. Baba Farid (1173-1266) the Sufi Master from Punjab is famous for his wise, spiritual couplets (slokas). Baba Afzal (1186-1256) was a Sufi Master, author of 500 mystical and at times controversial ruba'is. He is one of the greatest poets among the philosophers of Islam. Rumi (1207-1273), the great Master is today the most popular poet in the world. His poems are powerful, down-to-earth, full bliss and understanding.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE MASTER'S WORDS: Poems (Ghazals) inspired by sayings of Meher Baba by Paul Smith. From the 1920's into the late sixties the great Indian God-Realized Spiritual Master Meher Baba (1894-1969), composed unique ghazals under the pen-name of Huma. Now after 40 years as his disciple and being a poet from the mid-sixties, Paul Smith, uses the unique sayings of Meher Baba as the first lines to compose his own ghazals about love, spirituality, God, the present crises. The author carries on the ancient tradition of the ghazal and completes the task with love and dedication and the experience of writing hundreds of his own (the first in English) and translating for over 40 years those of Huma, Hafiz, Sadi, Nesimi, 'Attar and many others. Included are biographies of both poets and an article on Form, Function and History of the oldest, most mysterious, most beautiful poetic form... the still popular ghazal. Large Print (16pt) & Large Format (8.5" x 11") Pages 216. "To penetrate into the essence of all being and significance and to release the fragrance of that inner attainment for the guidance and benefit of others, by expressing in the world of forms, truth, love, purity and beauty... this is the only game which has any intrinsic and absolute worth. All other, happenings, incidents and attainments can, in themselves, have no lasting importance." Meher Baba. Comments on Paul Smith's Version of Hafiz's 'Divan'. "It is not a joke... the English version of all the ghazals of Hafiz is a great feat and of paramount importance. I am astonished." Dr. Mir Mohammad Taghavi (Dr. of Literature) Tehran.

Paul Smith (b. 1945) is a poet, author and translator of many books of Sufi poets of Persian, Arabic, Urdu, Turkish, Pashtu and other languages, including Hafiz, Sadi, Nizami, Rumi, 'Attar, Sana'i, Jahan, Obeyd Zakani, Nesimi, Kabir, Anvari, Ansari, Jami, Khayyam, Rudaki, Yunus Emre, Lalla Ded, Iqbal, Ghalib and many others, as well as poetry, fiction, plays, biographies and screenplays. amazon.com/author/smithpa

Book excerpt: HAKIM SANA'I Pioneer of the Persian Sufi Ghazal SELECTED POEMS Translation and Introduction by Paul Smith One of the most prolific and influential Sufi Master Poets of all time Hakim Sana'i (d.1131) composed many ghazals (over 90 translated here), masnavis, qasidas, qita's and over 400 ruba'is that influenced all the ruba'i writers that followed him. His long masnavi (rhyming couplets) mystical work The Enclosed Garden of the Truth is said to have had a profound influence on Rumi's composing of his Masnavi and in Sadi's composing his Bustan ('The Orchard'). Included in the Introduction are the Life and Times and Poetry of Sana'i and a history of the ghazal with a selection by its greatest Sufi poets. Selected Bibliography. The correct rhyme-structure has been kept, often for the first time, as well as the beauty and meaning of these powerful, mostly spiritual, beautiful, immortal ghazals.
