Rumi	Write for The Iranian Editorial policy

When my lost and wretched heart sees your face

Again that heart comes home to its own place.

Should all life pass and not one breath remain,

If she came back, the past would live again.

#644: From Rumi's Kolliyaat-e Shams-e Tabrizi
Edited by Badiozzaman Forouzanfar (Tehran, Amir Kabir, 1988).
