THE MASNAVI

of the Master Mevlānā
Mevlānā is a title of respect meaning "Our Master."
Jalāl al-Dīn Rūmī
Translated from the Persian

by
Friedrich Rosen
The word is like a vessel,
containing water;
Its meaning is the source, God,
from whom all meaning flows.The Masnavi.original: "Behältniß ist das Wort, wie Wasser drin ist / Sein Sinn, der Urquell Gott von allem Sinn ist."
