You are the secret of God's secret.

You are the mirror of divine beauty.

Everything in the universe is within you.

Ask all from yourself.

The One at whom you are looking is you also.

 

---------------------

 

Why are you chasing shadows all the time?

What do you want to wash from your eyes

With your blood?

You are God from head to foot.

Oh naive one, what are you looking for

Beyond yourself?

 

------------------------

 

At last I understand

Love depends on me.

I hold a thousand curls of its hair.

Yesterday, I was drunk with the cup.

Today, the cup is drunk from me

 

------------------------

 

The one who shares your trouble

is the one who cuts your head.

The one who puts a crown on your head

Is your source of trouble.

Adding more load on you makes you a burden.

Your friend takes you away from you.

 

-Rumi translated by Dr. Nevit O. Ergin
