Love

Love is from the infinite,
and will remain until eternity.

- Rumi

If you come

At the end of my life, with just one breath left,
if you come, I’ll sit up and sing.

- Rumi

Changing from inside up

Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.

- Rumi

Enslaved

I am the slave of that perfect Moon!
Don't talk to me of suffering, I don't want to hear.
Talk about light, joy and sweetness
and if you can't, keep silent!


- Rumi

Keep knocking

And the joy inside will eventually open a window.

- Rumi

You suppose

You suppose you are the trouble,
But you are the cure.
You suppose that you are the lock on the door,
But you are the key that opens it.
It's too bad that you want to be someone else.
You don't see your own face, your own beauty
Yet, no face is more beautiful than yours.


- Rumi

Don't grieve

Anything you lose comes round in another form.

- Rumi
