Dance, and make joyous the love around you. Dance, and your veils which hide the Light shall swirl in a heap at your feet.

More quotes by Rumi
Words are a pretext. It is the inner bond that draws one person to another, not words.
Rumi
People want you to be happy. Don't keep serving them your pain! If you could untie your wings and free your soul of jealousy, you and everyone around you would fly up like doves.
Rumi
Start a huge, foolish project, like Noah…it makes absolutely no difference what people think of you.
Rumi
Weep like the waterwheel, that green herbs may spring up from the courtyard of your soul. If you wish for tears, have mercy on one who sheds tears if you wish mercy, show mercy to the weak.
Rumi
I am in Love with Love and Love is in love with me. My body is in Love with the soul and the soul is in Love with my body. I opened my arms to Love and Love embraced me like a lover.
Rumi
The angel is free because of his knowledge, the beast because of his ignorance. Between the two remains the son of man to struggle.
Rumi
God's purpose for man is to acquire a seeing eye and an understanding heart. God gave you life and bestowed upon you his attributes eventually you will return to him. The rewards of life and devotion to God are love and inner rapture, and the capacity to receive the light of God.
Rumi
Whatever you lost through fate, be certain that it saved you from pain.
Rumi
When you are dead, seek for your resting place not in the earth, but in the hearts of men.
Rumi
Love is the soul's light, the taste of morning, no me, no we, no claim of being.
Rumi
Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not of the East, nor of the West.... My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless.
Rumi
Love has come to rule and transform Stay awake, my heart, stay awake.
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
Don't stray from your Heart's intent.
Rumi
In the house of lovers, the music never stops, the walls are made of songs & the floor dances
Rumi
I made an oath to myself: as long as I live as long as my soul remains in this body I won't deviate from the right way but later I looked to my left and then to my right and I saw our beloved everywhere how could I make a wrong turn?
Rumi
Doubt is a precipice on the way to God. Blessed is he who is freed from its bonds. He who fares without any doubt, adhere to his footprints if you do not know the way. Cleave to the footprints of the deer and advance with care that you may reach the musk-gland. By means of such trekking, even if you walk on fire, you will reach the luminous peak.
Rumi
Happy, not from anything that happens. Warm, not from fire or a hot bath. Light, I register zero on a scale.
Rumi
Inside any deep asking is the answering.
Rumi
I've brought you a mirror. Look at yourself and remember me.
Rumi
