More quotes by Rumi
Someone who does not run toward the allure of love walks a road where nothing lives. But this dove here senses the love hawk floating above, and waits, and will not be driven or scared to safety.
Rumi
When love is not accepted move on when love is not appreciated walk away hopefully time will teach what real, true love is.
Rumi
Tear off the mask. Your face is glorious
Rumi
Never lose hope when the beloved sends you away. If you're abandoned if you're left hopeless tomorrow for sure you'll be called again. If the door is shut right in your face keep waiting with patience don't leave right away. Seeing your patience your love will soon summon you with grace raise you like a champion.
Rumi
...one cannot lodge in if.
Rumi
Do not grieve over any joy that has gone forever, for it will return to you in another form, know that for sure.
Rumi
The satiated person and the hungry one do not see the same thing when they look upon a loaf of bread.
Rumi
Every need brings what's needed. Pain bears its cure like a child. Having nothing produces provisions. Ask a difficult question, And the marvelous answer appears.
Rumi
That's how you came here, like a star without a name. Move across the night sky with those anonymous lights.
Rumi
This poetry. I never know what I'm going to say.
Rumi
It's your road & yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you
Rumi
Because I cannot sleep I make music at night.
Rumi
Keep walking, though there's no place to get to. Don't try to see through the distances. That's not for human beings. Move within, But don't move the way fear makes you move.
Rumi
You lack a foot to travel? Then journey into yourself - that leads to transformation of dust into pure gold.
Rumi
Tonight the moon kisses the stars. O beloved,be like that to me!
Rumi
Though Destiny a hundred times waylays you,in the end it pitches a tent for you in Heaven. It is God's loving kindness to terrify you,in order to lead you to His Kingdom of safety.
Rumi
Go my friend bestow your love even on your enemies if you touch their hearts what do you think will happen.
Rumi
Let people catch something from your heart that will cause no discomfort, but help them to sing.
Rumi
The feelings trembled and flapped in his chest like a bird newly put in a cage.
Rumi
There is an unseen sweetness in the stomach’s emptiness. We are lutes. When the sound box is filled, no music can come forth. When the brain and the belly burn from fasting, every moment a new song rises out of the fire. The mists clear, and a new vitality makes you spring up the steps before you . . .
Rumi
