Description

An allegorical poem about the search of the world's birds for the perfect king illustrates the mystical beliefs of sufism.

About the Author

Brought up in a Sufi ambience, the author of this work, Faridu d-Din Attär (1145-1221), was an apothecary who lived near Nishapur. Attär, whom legend describes as having taken to the Sufi path in earnest after he witnessed a dervish surrender his soul outside his shop, went on to become one of the most famous Sufi poets in history, best known for his classical work the Mantiqu t-Tair.
