<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Now that all your worry has proved such an unlucrative business,
\nwhy not find a better job?<\/p>\n
I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness
\nthe astonishing light of your own being<\/p>\n
Even after all this time,
\nthe sun never says to the earth
\n“you owe me.”
\nLook what happens
\nwith a love like that.
\nIt lights the whole sky.<\/p>\n
The words you speak
\nbecome the house you live in.<\/p>\n
Ever since happiness heard your name,
\nit has been running through the streets
\ntrying to find you.<\/p>\n
Fear is the cheapest room in the house.
\nI would like to see you living In better conditions.<\/p>\n
This place where you are right now,
\nGod circled on a map for you.<\/p>\n
One regret, dear world,
\nthat I am determined not to have
\nwhen I am lying on my deathbed
\nis that I did not kiss you enough.<\/p>\n
There is a Beautiful Creature
\nLiving in a hole you have dug.
\nSo at night I set fruit and grains
\nAnd little pots of wine and milk
\nBesides your soft earthen mounds,
\nAnd I often sing.
\nBut still, my dear,
\nYou do not come out.
\nI have fallen in love with Someone
\nWho hides inside you.
\nWe should talk about this problem–
\nOtherwise, I will never leave you alone.<\/p>\n
Stay close to any sounds
\nthat make you glad you are alive.<\/p>\n
You carry all the ingredients
\nto turn your life into a nightmare
\n–Don’t mix them!<\/p>\n
A day of silence can be a pilgrimage in itself.<\/p>\n

His collected works composed of series of Persian literature are to be found in the homes of most people in Iran who learn his poems by heart and use them as proverbs and sayings to this day. His life and poems have been the subject of much analysis, commentary and interpretation, influencing post-fourteenth century Persian writing more than any other author.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
