Does anyone know where to locate an online version of the Rumi Wedding Vows Poem [Kulliyat-i Shams, #2667] in the original Persian, or a transliteration, if necessary?

For those curious about which poem I am speaking of, read on:

May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
May it be sweet milk, this marriage, like wine and halvah.
May this marriage offer fruit and shade like the date palm.
May this marriage be full of laughter,
our every day a day in paradise.
May this marriage be a sign of compassion,
a seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,
an omen as welcome as the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe how spirit mingles in this marriage.

If you are willing to pay (and if Persian is the same as Farsi) there are some professional translation sites w. native Farsi speakers.

Here’s 10 pages of some of his poems in Farsi, I think, from Koyilat Shams:

Geri Dön
Bu yeminler ve bu evlilik kutsanılsın.
Tatlı süt olsun
bu evlilik, şarap ve helva gibi olsun.
Bu evlilik meyve ve gölge sunsun
hurma ağacı gibi olsun.
Bu evlilik gülüşlerle dolsun,
hergünümüz cennette bir gün olsun.
Bu evlilik şefkatin bir belirtisi olsun
mutluluğu damgalasın hem burda hem de bundan sonrada.
Bu evliliğin yüzü hoş, adı güzel olsun,
berrak mavi gökte ay gibi hayırlı bir işaret olsun.
Sözcükler bulamıyorum anlatmaya
ruhun nasıl bu evliliğin içinde katıp karıştığına.
