Abstract :
Since time immemorial the elements of nature and their metaphysical traverse have been reflected in the literary works and the poets have referred to them in order to describe, eulogize, reproach, elegize and lyricize others. The manifestation of Nature could be found abundantly in Rumi’s Mathnavi and Divan-e Shams, and it is due to his metaphysical acknowledgement of the world. This claim is proved by the great variety of those element in the immense bulk of his verses. The mystic poets have experienced extraterrestrial conceptions that are intricate and mysterious and have reflected them in the imagery of their poems, wherein the Nature and natural phenomena are significantly present. Thinking of the Nature is in fact thinking of oneself, and a poem dealing with the Nature and the beyond has always been the concern of the poets in all times; though the poet who pioneered this applying of metaphysical imagery in his poetry is Sanāʾi. Rumi, on the other hand, refined it to its highest level, making a bridge between physical and metaphysical worlds through providing the classic poetry with mystical companionship. The researchers in this paper have applied a library-based descriptive-analytical approach to study how Rumi has used the Nature and its elements in his mystical poetry as well as the ways he has modified the metaphysical notions through physical purports.
