Day and night there is movement of foam on the Sea.

You see the foam, but not the Sea. Amazing!

We are dashing against each other like boats:

our eyes are darkened though we're on clear water.

O you who've gone to sleep in the body's boat,

you've seen the water,

but look at the Water of the water.

The water has a Water that is driving it;

the spirit has a Spirit that is calling it.

 

` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` ` `

 

 

 

 

Version by Camille and Kabir Helminski

" Rumi: Daylight "

Threshold Books, 1994
