Such an unexpected recommendation! Helena and Maulana - what a combination!

please give us more of both of them ❤

🖤💔🔥

U could never keep ur hair straight❤❤🎉🎉

I’m forever grateful that I can read Rumi poems in original Persian. I cannot explain how much more wonderful they are before translation ❤

She stole a tub of guacamole from my friend's BBQ in Hampstead in 2008. We were throwing apples and new potatoes at her as she ran into the bushes, it was proper mental 😂😂

Rumi is to poetry, what Mozart was to music. Thank you Helen Bonham Carter.

Music credit?

Lovely except the video and audio are out of sync. 😕

Love Helena, but she could turn down the “actress switch” when reading something like Rumí. It requires a bit less performance. 😊

That was an unexpected and very welcome visitor.

I love it when actors get old, it only shows how ridiculous they are.

Such beautiful words read by a beautiful soul 💕

Yeah, nah. I don't think so.

God bless you Helena Bonham Carter family and friends amen Thank you for your years of effort and achievement -- more than 40 years by now! Please could you help me to understand the true & real situation for the planet earth, with regard to future survival, and guide me to become more properly green - we need intelligent women to speak clear and strong -- maybe you have already -- maybe I should look for it. I am confident many women would understand better if you could explain why we must have a truly billion strong world-wide green movement -- intelligent choices for survival of our planet.

My favorite poem! I also love Oriah Mountain Dreamer's The Invitation too.

Be not inhospitable to strangers lest they be angels in disguise.

Ah yes! The truly great Mevlana Jalaluddin Rumi ... Muslim, Sufi poet ... Inspiring us through the centuries. ❤

Beautiful, thank you Helena. I have a deck Rumi cards which I treasure. I like to shuffle them and chose one to read. His poetry is so insightful and relevant today.

One of the finest actors to ever lived.

Where did you go, Marla?

Lovey central.

I got a chance to visit his grave site in Konya in Turkey this year, definitely an interesting experience.

I like her and Rumi ❤

My favorite poem in the world, done with a bit of sass!

She is too flippant I feel

Helena can still get it any night of the week and twice on Sunday!😋

Greetings from Canada. I am subscribing to absorb more Rumi. Your words are almost the same volume as the music. I send a smile.

I wish you could all read Rumi in Persian, the language of his poetry. Even though still beautiful in any other language, much is lost in translation!

Came for the feet, stayed for the lovely poetry. ...then came for the feet.

❤❤

Did Quentin Tarantino direct this?

Only the really well bred can look and dress like her…….the rest of you just follow cheap fashion and aspire…..

I imagine her breaking up with me in her calm soothing voice : " yah yah I no longa love you, or like you asmf I hate you a bit, bsides I got me another man 2 feet taller than you got a huge dick and he is very rich or so he tells me ,so off you go that way I go this way, bye bye you miserable fuck"😂😂

The difference between the Secondary self and the Primary self.❤

Love the poem, love her!!!

I never heard anybody read a poem so good! I really enjoyed her poetry reading.

Just love her ❤

Thank you beautiful arteest ❤

Music sucks. Let’s just hear her voice please!

Anyone knows the name of the book???

Rumi's words speak over 800 years as though he were with you in the room.

Why oh why the irritating background music 😢😢😢

that girl you impress by acting interested when she reads poetry. 🙂

This woman is so beautiful and never ages. Stay young Helena!

I could watch and listen to her read poetry all day.

Makes you wonder why she does so little Shakespeare. If only she would do Goneril.

*When Helena BC is speaking, don't put that awful 🎹 noise, that's ruining it 😢*

Who do you imagine you are talking to with this type of monologue where there are no characters? Same question - for how do you story-tell to an audience? Do you imagine someone you know that you are talking to, for example?

Her feet got in the way.
