About this listen
If the Masnavi is the ring of a Sufi, then the "Song of the Reed" is the jewel at its center. In this episode, we focus on the key to understanding the Masnavi—its opening section known as the Nayname, or the Song of the Reed. We explore the deep symbolism behind the reed flute’s lament and how it sets the tone for the entire work. This first composition is not just an introduction, but a doorway into Rumi’s spiritual world. Through it, we begin to grasp the longing, separation, and divine yearning that lie at the heart of the Masnavi.
