The title of work refers to a famous poem by legendary Persian Sufi and poet Rumi in which he encourages pious people to cleanse their heart from hatred and drink instead the wine of love.
 "Open your heart like a tray
 Vengeance wash away and pray
 The wine of love, when down you lay
 Your cup grace, your cup grace
 You must become wholly a soul
 To be worthy of the Divine Whole
 If with the drunk you play your role
 Drinking chase, drinking chase"
 The dancing woman, saaghi, embodied in this triptych, is a metaphor that renders the point of view of the Persian mystic or Sufi, and its greatest exponent Rumi, which is widely reflected in Persian poetry; the mundane love stands for a spiritual love for God. Hence, love appears as a window of hope in this work and is symbolized by a woman offering love wine as a major source of salvation.
In his love poems, Rumi uses many images from the mundane world, such as the wine and the wine bearer, the pearl and the ocean, the sun and the moon, the night and day, and many more. However, he has always expressed spiritual wisdom of the highest level through this imagery.
