原文

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing and rightdoing, there is a field. I’ll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even the phrase “each other” doesn’t make any sense.

Beyond the ideas of right and wrong, there's a field. I'll meet you there. When the soul lies down in that grass, the world is too full to talk about. Ideas, language, even saying 'each other' doesn't make sense.

解説

This poem by Rumi speaks to the idea of transcending the dualities of right and wrong. The 'field' represents a spiritual space beyond judgment and conflict, where souls can connect on a deeper level. Rumi invites the reader to meet in this place of unity and peace. When the soul is in this state, worldly concerns and language become irrelevant, as the experience of unity is beyond words. The poem reflects Rumi's Sufi beliefs, emphasizing the dissolution of ego and the embrace of universal love and understanding. It suggests that true connection and understanding occur beyond the limitations of language and societal constructs.
