All Through Eternity/Rumi

[Guest guest]

All through eternity.............................By Jalaluddin Rumi

 

All through eternity

 

Beauty unveils His exquisite form

 

in the solitude of nothingness;

 

He holds a mirror to His Face

 

and beholds His own beauty.

 

he is the knower and the known,

 

the seer and the seen;

 

No eye but His own

 

has ever looked upon this Universe.

 

 

 

His every quality finds an expression:

 

Eternity becomes the verdant field of Time and Space;

 

Love, the life-giving garden of this world.

 

Every branch and leaf and fruit

 

Reveals an aspect of His perfection-

 

The cypress give hint of His majesty,

 

The rose gives tidings of His beauty.

 

 

 

Whenever Beauty looks,

 

Love is also there;

 

Whenever beauty shows a rosy cheek

 

Love lights Her fire from that flame.

 

When beauty dwells in the dark folds of night

 

Love comes and finds a heart

 

entangled in tresses.

 

Beauty and Love are as body and soul.

 

Beauty is the mine, Love is the diamond.

 

 

 

They have been together

 

since the beginning of time-

 

Side by side, step by step.
