So, in this video, I have shared a recitation of a portion of the opening of Masnavi Shareef of Maulana Rumi.

The recitation is voiced by Sh. Tahir-ul-Qadri and the translations are by Muhammad Ali from the famous Instagram handle "Persian Poetics."

NOTE: I was unable to find translations for the last two couplets by Muhammad Ali and so I took the liberty of translating them. I hope that my translation is not too far off from the original.
DISCLAIMER: I am only at a beginner's level in Persian. However, my mother tongue is Urdu which is very close to Persian. So, I am hoping that my translation is not too bad.
