Yoohoo,
In the name of love and beloved Divine,
Welcome to Persian Poetry.
I'm Nobie and I'm gonna take you into today's poetry,
Coming from a Sufi master and Persian poet of the 12th and 13th century,
From Iran,
From the city of Neshabur in Persia.
Ator Neshaburi was a great mystic of his time and a Sufi master and he was one of the people who influenced Molana Rumi,
One of the most famous Sufi masters and Persian poet known today to the world from that time.
Molana Rumi met Ator Neshaburi in his young age and Ator gave him his book named Asra Al Nome and Rumi was inspired by this beautiful master.
Ator wrote a famous story named Conference of Birds,
Which is a story of a pilgrimage of thousands and thousands of birds to find an ultimate bird and it's a beautiful influential story of searching for the divine.
Today I'm gonna take you with me into a beautiful poem by Ator Neshaburi,
Which talks about the tale of three butterflies and this is about love,
The real love,
The meaning of the real love.
I hope that you enjoy.
In the realm of love,
We are like the tale of the three butterflies.
The first one came near the candle flame and said,
I discovered what the meaning of love is.
The second one came closer and its wing touched the flame.
He said,
I'm burned in the flame of love.
The third one throw itself inside the fire and vanished.
Yes,
Yes,
Beloved,
This was the real meaning of love.
In Persian language.
In English.
Otashkekan,
Ori Ori,
Inbovat,
Manoyes And this is the real meaning of love May your hearts be always filled with the light of love May the divine be always your guide And may you always rise in love Namaste
