“The Hand of Poetry: Five Mystic Poets of Persia" is an accessible book that offers an entrance into an enchanted world of visionary beauty and truth — presented through five lectures on Persian poetry given by Inayat Khan in the United States (1923)

The book features popular translations by Coleman Barks from the poems of Sanai, Attar, Rumi, Saadi, and Hafiz

Each of these poets played a significant role in the development of Sufi poetry and philosophy.

Their verses contain deep spiritual insights and reflections on the human experience.

Rumi, notably, is widely known for his poetry that explores themes of divine love, union, and the journey of the soul.
