Rumi is well known for the over 44, 000 verses that appear in a 23-volume collection called the Divan-I Kebir. Yet Rumi, also, composed 1,700 rubais, short aphorisms and observations, whose depth and message belie their brevity. The form of rubais first became well known through the 11th century collection The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.
