I'm guessing it's in Farsi, but alas I don't know any Iranians. Anyone have any thoughts on where to look?

My understanding was that it is an excerpt from "Beshno Az Ney," a setting of a spiritual text by the Persian mystic Rumi, the same text that appears on the screens.  In fact, I learned about 75% of what I know about this from @U2:
