More quotes by Rumi
This is love: to fly toward a secret sky
Rumi
The minute I heard my first love story, I started looking for you.
Rumi
Not the ones speaking the same language, but the ones sharing the same feeling understand each other.
Rumi
Love is our steady guide on this road full of hardships.
Rumi
Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
It's your road & yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you
Rumi
Oh you, unceasing sun, to me Your particles communicate The luminous essence of God, Are you our God? I do not know. Intoxicated, I say nought, Bewitched by the magic potion. I cannot differentiate Between my drunk and sober state.
Rumi
Every midwife knows that not until a mother’s womb softens from the pain of labor will a way unfold and the infant find that opening to be born. Oh friend! There is treasure in your heart, it is heavy with child. Listen. All the awakened ones, like trusted midwives are saying, 'welcome this pain. It opens the dark passage of Grace.
Rumi
There is some kiss we want with your whole lives, the touch of spirit on the body. Seawater begs the pearl to break its shell. And the lily, how passionately it needs some wild darling.
Rumi
Forget every touch or sound that did not teach you how to dance
Rumi
Suffering is a gift in its hidden mercy
Rumi
I want that love that moved the mountains. I want that love that split the ocean. I want that love that made the winds tremble. I want that love that roared like thunder. I want that love that will raise the dead. I want that love that lifts us to ecstasy. I want that love that is the silence of eternity.
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
Half-heartedness doesn't reach into majesty. You set out to find God, but then you keep stopping for long periods at meanspirited roadhouses.
Rumi
The ocean of the body crashes against the ocean of the heart. Between them is a barrier they cannot cross.
Rumi
Sometimes the shadow stays next to the Light. Sometimes it disappears into the Light
Rumi
The sky will bow down to your beauty, if you do.
Rumi
When lovers of life get ready to dance, the earth shakes and the sky trembles.
Rumi
Tear off the mask. Your face is glorious
Rumi
Stop learning. Start knowing
Rumi
