You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence or in absence.
RumiThis phantom world gave you false signs But you turned from the illusion and journeyed to the land of truth.
RumiLove isn't the work of the tender and the gentle; Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don't ask anyone about Love; ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls.
RumiEvery leaf that grows will tell you: what you sow will bear fruit, so if you have any sense my friend, don't plant anything but Love.
Rumi
