You’ve seen my descent, now watch my rising.
RUMIYou’ve seen my descent, now watch my rising.
RUMIYou were born with wings, why prefer to crawl through life?
RUMIThe breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you. Don’t go back to sleep.
RUMIEvery story is us.
RUMIRaise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.
RUMIMy soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that, and I intend to end up there.
RUMIEveryone has been made for some particular work and the desire for that work has been put in every heart.
RUMIDo not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside you.
RUMII want to sing like the birds sing, not worrying about who hears or what they think.
RUMINo one can tell if I’m laughing or weeping.
RUMIGod turns you from one feeling to another and teaches by means of opposites so that you will have two wings to fly, not one
RUMITwo there are who are never satisfied – the lover of the world and the lover of knowledge.
RUMIThis is love: to fly toward a secret sky, to cause a hundred veils to fall each moment. First to let go of life. Finally, to take a step without feet.
RUMINever lose hope, my heart, miracles dwell in the invisible. If the whole world turns against you keep your eyes on the Friend.
RUMIMy lips got lost on the way to the kiss – that’s how drunk I was.
RUMIWhy do you stay in prison, when the door is so wide open?
RUMI
