Notes
The work was created by collecting Mevlana's rubas from Dîvân-ı Kebîr. Mevlana does not have a separate work called Rubâ'iyyât. The fact that the rubâis in the Dîvân-ı Kebî are in the volume of a work attracted the attention of those working on Mevlana and his works, and as a result of this attention, Rubâ'iyyât was published as a separate work. Veled Çelebi was the first to bring the Rubai together with his work titled Rubâ'iyyât-ı Hazret-i Mevlânâ (1314). This publication, which includes 1644 ruba'is, is not a translation work but an identification work. Because in this publication, Turkish translations of the rubais were not made, only the Persian originals were brought together. It is seen that studies on Rubai increased in intensity during the Republic period. In this period, translation activities related to Mevlana's rubas were carried out in two branches: prose and verse.1. Prose translations: The first Turkish translations of Mevlana's rubais were made by Hasan Ali Yücel, under the name Mevlana's Rubai (1932). In this book, Yücel translated 107 selected rubais and arranged the Persian readings of the translated rubais in new letters. The second person who translated selected rubais from Mevlana and published them together with the originals is Asaf Hâlet Çelebi. In his publication titled Mevlana's Rubais (1939), Çelebi gave the Persian originals and Turkish translations of 276 selected rubais, and also translated these rubais into French and published them. All of Mevlana's rubas were published for the first time by Abdülbaki Gölpınarlı in 1964 under the name Rubailer. In this work, Gölpınarlı translated the 1765 rubais at the end of the second volume of Dîvân-ı Kebîr in the Mevlânâ Museum into Turkish and added explanations at the end of the work. Abdülbaki Gölpınarlı also published 27 rubais under the name of Selected Rubailers in Konya (1963b) and 210 rubais in Istanbul (1963a). The Turkish translations of the rubais in Veled Çelebi's above-mentioned publication were made by Mehmet Nuri Gençosman and published under the name Mevlana's Rubais in 1974. The most voluminous prose translation of Rubai was made by Şefik Can. This translation, the first volume of which was published in 1990 and the second volume in 1991, contains 2217 rubai texts, two of which are missing. 216 rubai, which are not found in other publications, were scanned from magazines and added to this translation. However, it cannot be overlooked that some rubais are repeated with very little difference. In this work, the translator tried a method that we can call explanation-translation style. The same translator's work titled Mevlana and Plato, published in Konya in 1965, includes the originals and translations of 87 rubains.2. Verse Translations: The first Turkish verse translation of the Rubais was made by Hüseyin Rıfat Işıl in 1937, under the name Verse Translations from Mevlana Rubais. This work contains the verse translations of 50 ruba'is. The second attempt at verse translation of the Rubai was made by Poet Orhan Veli. Orhan Veli, under the pseudonym Mehmet Ali Sel, translated Mevlana's 6 rubais in verse and aruz in the 14th issue of Human Magazine dated 1 May 1941. Mehmet Nuri Gençosman, who translated the rubais in prose, also translated 128 rubais in verse with the 14-syllable meter in 1964, under the title Selected Rubais from Mevlana. In 1971, poet Basri Gocul made an attempt at a free verse verse translation of 30 rubais in his treatise-sized work titled Ruba'is from Mevlana. In 1986, the poet Feyzi Halıcı translated the 120 rubâîs he chose, in verse and in aruz, under the name Mevlânâ Celaleddin Rubâiler. In 1987, Hamza Tanyaş published the verse translation of 220 rubais in aruz, under the title Rubailer from Mevlana; Then, he developed this work and translated 431 rubai poems in rubai metres, again under the name Mevlânâdan Rubâiler, and in addition, he gave the Persian reading of 102 poems in new letters. Talat Sait Halman published his work of 157 rubais, which he published in 2000 under the title Candan Cana Mevlana Mevlana Celaleddin Rumi's Selected Rubai, and in 2004 under the title Sevda Yüce Gözyle. The verse Turkish translation of all of Mevlana's rubais was made by Ziya Avşar in Konya in 2007 under the title of All Rubailers, the Language of Secrets. In this publication of Avşar, there are verse translations of 2188 rubains. Avşar republished this translation in Istanbul in 2019 under the name Mevlana Ruba'ies, the Language of Secrets. The basic character of Mevlana's rubais is that they tell the truth of tawhid, which encompasses all existence, from many different fronts in an enthusiastic and witty language. In all rubais, it is seen that the truth of monotheism is conveyed through a unique language of love, with a color mastery that is different from each other but does not deviate from the main tone. Mevlana, in his Ruba'is, builds his own unique ruba'i language by melting the enthusiasm coming from love and the caution coming from wisdom in the same pot. His rubais, like Khayyam's rubai, focus on creating a consciousness of monotheism as a whole, unlike a sarzaz utterance that leads to different interpretations. In this respect, it is seen that all rubai revolve around the themes of love, longing and reunion, but they never break away from faith and hope.
