Quatrain 40 from Rubaiyat of Rumi
Description: English Translation of the Quatrain
O Beloved, come and destroy this slave of Yours.
Come and bring forth the color that only You know.
O You Who have learned deceit in every place,
Deceive me just once and come forth.
Analysis of the Quatrains
Surrender to Love: The speaker is asking the beloved to completely consume them in love, leading to spiritual annihilation or transformation.
Divine Color: The "color" the beloved is asked to bring forth likely refers to a spiritual or mystical experience, a state of divine consciousness.
Paradox of Deceit: The speaker paradoxically asks the beloved to deceive them, perhaps suggesting a desire for a deeper level of spiritual understanding or a test of their faith.
