I picked up some prints at a garage sale last weekend and I've been wondering what the writing says. Can anyone help?

You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars, you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should. -anonymous note found in Old Saint Paul church dated 1692

I think this must be in Farsi (Persian). I shall ask my venerable professor to decipher this!
Looks like illustrations of a Sufi tale.
Thank you rama!
Yes, in the back of the prints it says that one's about Emir Shahi and the other is an illustration of Hafiz's poem "The Lovers"
Hi Kozi, actually I thought this might be something from Hafiz, the great Persian poet and Sufi. I just spoke to my professor and am now sending him to image files to look at.
thank you kind sir
Hi Kozi, my professor was unable to decipher the Persian text. Perhaps this is because this is very old, while he is familiar with modern Persian.
well then let the mysterious veil hang over them :)
tell your professor that i appreciate his effort and yours of course
Good words.
