We do this! Every weekend, we read Rumi's Masnawi together and translate it as a team effort.
Ok so the next question is: I am curious if anyone has experience running translation groups. I have done zoom book clubs, and this is kind of like that, but it is also a bit more than that. What has and has not worked for you in the past?.

Forbid Iran fall to decay,.a ruined lair where wild beasts hold sway. —Firdawsi, the Shāh-nāma. daregh ast erān ki werān shawad.kunām-i palangān o sherān shawad.

Iran is the heart, the world, but a frame,.to compare the two is no cause for shame. —Nizami Ganjawi. hama ʿālam tan ast o erān dil.nest goyanda zīn qiyās khajil.
