There Are A Hundred Kinds Of Prayer (Quatrain in Farsi with English Translation)
Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi 1207 (Balkh) – 1273 (Konya )
emrôz chô har rôz, kharâb-êm kharâb
ma-g'shâ dar andêsha-wo bar gîr rabâb
Sad gôna namâz-ast-o rukû`-ast-o sujûd
ân-râ ke jamâl-é dôst bâsh-ad miHrâb
----------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------
Today, like every day, we are ruined, ruined (by 'wine').
Don't open the door of worry, but take up the lute!
There are a hundred kinds of prayer, bowing, and prostration6
For the one whose prayer-niche, is the beauty of the Beloved
