Quatrain 92 from Rubaiyat of Rumi
Description: English Translation of the Quatrain
Remove the veils all at once tonight,
Leave not a hair from the two worlds tonight.
Yesterday, you spoke of the tale of the soul and heart,
Tonight, we place ourselves as slain and sorrowful before you.
Analysis of the Quatrains

The Call for Unconditional Surrender: The request to "remove the veils" and "leave not a hair" suggests a complete surrender to the beloved.
Contrast Between Yesterday and Tonight: The contrast between yesterday's discourse on the soul and heart and tonight's surrender highlights the intensity of the present moment.
The State of Submission: The image of being "slain and sorrowful" conveys a state of complete submission and devotion.
