“The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell youDon't go back to sleep!You must ask for what you really want.Don't go back to sleep!People are going back and forth across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,The door is round and openDon't go back to sleep!”

Jalaluddin Rumi was a 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic. His works, including the *Masnavi* and *Diwan-e Shams-e Tabrizi*, blend spiritual insight with vivid imagery, exploring love, divine unity, and human connection. The *Masnavi* remains a cornerstone of Sufi literature, celebrated for its poetic depth and philosophical richness.
