Answer:

If read in the original Persian, “The Guest House” might also have had alliteration and assonance, among other poetic devices, that could have been lost in its translation to English.

The poem "The Guest House" is written by the Persian poet Rumi in the 13th century. The poetic devices  that we can see in this poem are

 

  • Metaphor: The poem uses the metaphor of a guest house to describe the human experience. Just as guests come and go from a guest house, our emotions and experiences come and go in our lives. Here human emotions are described as guests in a guest house.
  • Personification: The poem personifies the emotions and experiences as "a joy, a depression, a meanness," and urges the reader to treat each guest with respect as if they are a "guide from beyond."
  • Alliteration: The poem uses alliteration in the phrase "The dark thought, the shame, the malice" to create a sense of repetition and emphasis.
  • Repetition: The poem repeats the phrase "welcome them all" multiple times, emphasizing the importance of accepting all emotions and experiences.
