Rumi

[Veshtrusja]

Yesterday your intoxicated dream image came with a cup in his hand.
I said: "I don't drink wine!"
He said: "Not doing it, then, is a pity!"
I said: "I am afraid that if I drink, shame will fly out of my head,
and I may put my hand on your curls, and then you'll recede from me!"

good thing I don't drink :D

• 
  Only when man becomes deprived of outward being like
  winter,
  there is hope for a new spring to develop in him.

Rumi

• 
  "We worship Thee!" -- that is the garden's prayer
  in winter time.
  
  "We ask Thy help!" -- that is its cry then
  in time of spring.
  
  "We worship Thee" -- that means: I come to beg,
  imploring Thee:
  
  Don't leave me in this sorrow, Lord, make wide
  the door of joy!
  
  "We ask Thee, Lord, for help" -- that is, the fullness
  of ripe, sweet fruit.
  
  Now break my branches and my twigs -- protect me,
  My Lord, My God!

• Ghazal (Ode) 2821
  
  
  At the time of evening prayer
  everyone spreads cloth and candles,
  But I dream of my beloved,
  see, lamenting, grieved, his phantom.
  My ablution is with weeping,
  thus my prayer will be fiery,
  and I burn the mosque's doorway
  when my call to prayer strikes it. . . .
  Is the prayer of the drunken,
  tell, is this prayer valid?
  For he does not know the timing
  and is not aware of places.
  Did I pray for two full cycles?
  Or is this perhaps the eighth one?
  And which Sura did I utter?
  For I have no tongue to speak it.
  At God's door - how could I knock now,
  For I have no hand or heart now?
  You have carried heart and hand, God!
  Grant me safety, God, forgive me. . . .

• Rumi

Become silent and go by way of silence toward
non-existence,
and when you become non-existent you'll be all praise and loud.

[PrInCiPiEl]

• Rumi

• 
  
  
  How much I may explain and describe love,
  
  When I reach love, I become ashamed.
  
  Although the commentary by the tongue is illuminating,
  
  love without tongues is more radiant.

• Rumi

• 
  
  
  Love is like an ocean on which the skies are only foam,
  
  agitated like Zoleykha in her love for Joseph,
  
  and the turning of the skies is the result of the wave of love:
  
  if love were not there, the world would be frozen.

• Rumi

• 
  
  
  Ever more shall I desire
  
  than time's bounded needs require.
  
  Ever as more flowers I pluck
  
  Blossoms new gay spring's attire.
  
  And when through the heavens I sweep
  
  Rolling spheres will flash new fire.
  
  Perfect Beauty only can
  
  True eternal love inspire.

• Rumi

• Love cannot be described; it is even greater than a hundred
  
  resurrections,
  
  for the resurrection is a limit, whereas love is limitless. Love has
  
  five hundred wings, each of which reaches from the Divine Throne to the
  
  lowest earth. . .
