[Sunlight] Love and reputation

~

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love and reputation, brother,
are not in harmony:
don't stand at the door of reputation, if you are a lover.

`Eshq o nâmus ay berâdar râst nist
bar dar-e nâmus ay `âsheq mah-'ist


-- Mathnawi VI: 612
Version by Camille and Kabir Helminski
"Rumi: Jewels of Remembrance"
Threshold Books, 1996
