M3:4466
Kahulugan · به زبانِ تو — Iyong wika · AI
This couplet explains that experiencing setbacks and unfulfilled desires (misfortune) actually serves as a guide towards spiritual paradise, echoing the prophetic saying that the path to heaven is difficult.
Rumi is here building on the idea that God occasionally allows our plans to succeed so that we remain hopeful and continue to strive, but then breaks them to remind us of His ultimate power. This couplet provides a deeper spiritual meaning to these 'broken' desires. It suggests that these very experiences of 'بیمرادی' (bī-murādī, unfulfilled desire or misfortune) are not hindrances but rather qallāwaz-e behesht (guides to Paradise).
The second hemistich directly quotes a well-known hadith (prophetic tradition): ḥaffat al-jannatu bi'l-makārih (Paradise is surrounded by hardships). By juxtaposing 'misfortune' with this hadith, Rumi emphasizes that the difficulties and disappointments we face are precisely the 'hardships' that encircle the path to spiritual fulfillment and divine proximity. For the 'lovers' (ʿāshiqān) mentioned in the preceding verses, these broken desires are not causes for despair, but rather revelations of their Master's sovereignty and a means of drawing closer to Him. It's a call to those 'of noble essence' (khush-sirisht) to understand this profound spiritual truth.
