More quotes by Rumi
You try to be faithful And sometimes you're cruel. You are mine. Then, you leave. Without you, I can't cope. And when you take the lead, I become your footstep. Your absence leaves a void. Without you, I can't cope. You have disturbed my sleep, You have wrecked my image. You have set me apart. Without you, I can't cope.
Rumi
You left and I cried tears of blood. My sorrow grows. Its not just that You left. But when You left my eyes went with You. Now, how will I cry?
Rumi
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi
Within tears, find hidden laughter Seek treasures amid ruins, sincere one.
Rumi
Don't be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.
Rumi
Silence is the language of God, all else is poor translation.
Rumi
What was said to the rose that made it open, was said to me, here in my chest.
Rumi
This is a gathering of Lovers. In this gathering there is no high, no low, no smart, no ignorant, no special assembly, no grand discourse, no proper schooling required. There is no master, no disciple. This gathering is more like a drunken party, full of tricksters, fools, mad men and mad women. This is a gathering of Lovers.
Rumi
Last night I learned how to be a lover of God. To live in this world and call nothing my own.
Rumi
God writes spiritual Mysteries on our heart, where they wait silently for discovery.
Rumi
Maybe you are searching among the branches, for what only appears in the roots.
Rumi
There is my body, in it an ocean formed of his glory, all the creation, all the universes, all the galaxies, are lost in it.
Rumi
What I had thought of before as God, I met today in a human being.
Rumi
My heart rushes into the garden, joyfully tasting all the delights. But reason frowns, disapproving of the heart's bad manners.
Rumi
Everything is soul and flowering.
Rumi
Fish love the ocean. Snakes move like earth-fish inside a mountain,well away from seawater. Certain sunfish,though,turn snakes into ocean lovers.
Rumi
The branch might seem like the fruit's origin: In fact, the branch exist because of the fruit.
Rumi
When someone critises or disagrees with you, a small ant of hatred and antagonism is born in your heart. If you do not squash that ant at once, it might grow into a snake, or even a dragon.
Rumi
On a day when the wind is perfect, the sail just needs to open and the world is full of beauty. Today is such a day.
Rumi
I’ve been looking for a long, long time, for this thing called love, I’ve ridden comets across the sky, and I’ve looked below and above. Then one day I looked inside myself, and this is what I found, A golden sun residing there, beaming forth God’s light and sound.
Rumi
