Description
Poems Inspired by Music is a luminous bilingual collection of Persian and English poetry shaped by the ancient rhythms of Persian classical music. Written over the course of 2025, these poems emerged in real time as the author listened to his son perform traditional Persian Dastgah melodies on the setar, allowing music to guide meter, emotion, and form.
Rooted in centuries-old Persian poetic traditions while speaking to universal human experience, this collection explores love, faith, beauty, suffering, compassion, and the search for meaning. Each poem is carefully structured to mirror the musical patterns of Persian modes, creating a rare fusion of sound and verse that elevates poetry into a multisensory experience.
The book includes:Original Persian poems with English translationsGhazals, masnavis, ruba'i, and free-form reflectionsSpiritual and philosophical meditations inspired by Sufism and Persian mysticismVisual elements drawn from the author's artwork and photography
More than a poetry book, Poems Inspired by Music is a dialogue between generations, cultures, and art forms where music becomes language, and poetry becomes sound. It will resonate deeply with readers of world poetry, Persian literature, spiritual writing, and those drawn to the timeless harmony between art and the soul.
