Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Sit, be still, and listen,
because you're drunk
and we're at
the edge of the roof.”
Rumi

“The breezes at dawn have secrets to tell you
Don't go back to sleep!
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep!
People are going back and forth
across the doorsill where the two worlds touch,
The door is round and open
Don't go back to sleep!”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“You wander from room to room
Hunting for the diamond necklace
That is already around your neck!”
Rumi

Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
