Persian poetry, set to music

NoorSun Music records the classical Persian poets — Rumi, Hafez, Attar, Saadi, Khayyam — as songs. Every recording carries the complete poem, not only the lines that were sung, and the poem itself is the transport: tap a couplet and the recording moves to it.

The site is in Persian, because the poetry is. This page is the way in. Poem texts come from Ganjoor.
