Image
In your light I learn how to love. In your beauty, how to make poems. You dance inside my chest where no-one sees you, but sometimes I do, and that sight becomes this art.
Rumi
Image
Darkness is your candle. Your boundaries are your quest.
Rumi
Image
The rose does best as a rose. Lilies make the best lilies. And look! You - the best you around!
Rumi

Whatever happens to you, don't fall in despair. Even if all the doors are closed, a secret path will be there for you that no one knows. You can't see it yet but so many paradises are at the end of this path...Be grateful! It is easy to thank after obtaining what you want, thank before having what you want.
Rumi
Image
The gifts of lovers to one another are, in respect to love, nothing but forms yet, they testify to invisible love.
Rumi
Image
Come out of the circle of time And into the circle of love.
Rumi
Image
Cease looking for flowers! There blooms a garden in your own home. While you look for trinkets The treasure house awaits you in your own being.
Rumi
Image
Pour out wine till I become a wanderer from myself for in selfhood and existence I have felt only fatigue.
Rumi

Knowest thou not the beauty of thine own face? Quit this temper that leads thee to war with thyself.

Whatever pearl you seek, look for the pearl within the pearl!
Rumi

There are many languages in the world in meaning all are the same. If you break the cups, water will be unified and will flow together.
