Birdsong: Fifty-Three Short Poems

Several writers are currently doing collaborative translations of Rumi's poetry, but none of them have anywhere near the publication record, the popularity, or the following of these done by Coleman Barks. Approximately 250,000 of his volumes have sold in the last 12 years, including, along with the Maypop editions, the ones published by Threshold, Copper Beech, and now the enormously successful Essential Rumi from HarperCollins.
